DECA Inc. and FIDM/Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising are excited to announce the winners of this year’s FIDM Entrepreneur of Tomorrow Challenge. The competition tasked members with presenting a new clothing, beauty, home, health, food or entertainment concept in a four-minute video presentation. Participants could spend no more than $25.00 to create a prototype and develop a marketing and distribution strategy.
Over 125 entries were submitted. FIDM executives reviewed all submissions and selected the top four presentations. Each of the top four winning teams will be recognized on stage during the International Career Development Conference in Atlanta, GA this April. The teams will also be awarded ICDC travel stipends.
