Plan Your Own Enterprise (PYOE) Competition

We are pleased to announce the Business Educators Australasia’s Plan Your Own Enterprise (PYOE) Competition is running again in 2022.

The competition involves students devising a creative enterprise idea and submitting a 3,500 word business plan, explaining how their great idea could become a profitable business. The plan needs to include the business name, prime function, location, legal structure, staffing requirements, marketing plan, pricing and financial plan. The brochure lists the specific requirements for each section.

The competition promotes a range of skills including organisation and planning, innovation, decision making, research and communication, prioritising and collaborating, reflection and action.

Students can enter one of two divisions within the competition:

  • Division one – Open to individual student entries, submitted by students of any age, attending a registered secondary school.
  • Division two – Group entries (maximum of six students), submitted by students of any age, attending a registered secondary school.

NSW entries are due by Friday September 9, 2022 (Term 3, Week 8).

All submissions need to have the entry form on the front page followed by the business plan itself. These need to be posted to: Nick Ward, Economics and Business Educators NSW (EBE NSW), PO Box 699, LIDCOMBE NSW 1825.

There is no cost to enter the competition.

Once entries are received, these will be shortlisted down to the top ten Division 1 and top five Division 2 entries. These finalists will be invited to the NSW PYOE Award Ceremony in early Term 4. At the ceremony first, second and third will be announced in each division. These place getters will win cash prizes!

The winner from each division from each state and territory in Australia will proceed onto the National Awards Ceremony where the national winners will be announced. National prizes include a $1,500 cash for Division 1, and $1,000 cash for Division 2 (shared amongst the group).
