The 3rd Annual Mayor's Entrepreneurial Spirit Award was recently kicked-off. This year's competition is sponsored by SpiritBank of Tulsa. Representatives and business leaders from the local and state levels were all there to lend their support to the new entrepreneurs getting involved in this year's business competition.
For interested entrepreneurs, you can enter the competition by submitting your executive summaries to 
the Spirit Award website anytime between April 2nd and May 15th. The lucky first place winner will win the grand prize of $30,000, second place will win $5,000 and third place will win $2,500. All prize money is being donated by SpiritBank.
Many people don't know this, but Tulsa was built on entrepreneurial spirit and creative thinking. So, for the past three years, the Mayor has been making sure the city will continue to grow and strengthen through business success.
The Entrepreneurial Spirit Competition is open to anyone in the City of Tulsa with an existing business from a start-up business, an idea for a new business or one that has been in operation for five years. Two more things entrants need to know before entering: the company must be based in Tulsa and the entrant must agree to establish or expand in the City of Tulsa if they win.
Once submissions are complete, the top 25 business will be contacted. These companies will then go through a series of judging and coaching rounds where entrepreneurs will pitch their business idea to a panel of judges. The top three winners will be announced on November 17th during the Entrepreneurial Celebration of Global Entrepreneurship Week. They will also receive their cash prize on this day.
Anyone interested in entering the competition can find more information on instructions and submissions at www.tulsaspiritaward.com.
We wish luck to all Tulsa's entrepreneurs entering - Good luck!
