The top three winners of the regional competition will advance to the final for a chance to win RMB 1 million and obtain further funding.

The Macao regional competition is title-sponsored by the Bank of China Macao Branch and hosted by UM. It aims to encourage college students to start their own businesses by providing a platform to connect the students with entrepreneurs and potential investors.
