Mar 7, 2023

DECA Inc. and Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising (FIDM) are excited to announce the 2023 FIDM Entrepreneur of Tomorrow Challenge winners!

The FIDM Entrepreneur of Tomorrow Challenge provided DECA members the opportunity to present an entrepreneurial proposal for a new product idea for a specific market segment. 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.

Each of the top three winning teams will be recognized on stage during the International Career Development Conference in Orlando, FL this April. The teams will also be awarded ICDC travel stipends.
