The XJTLU “Dream-Chasers” Global Entrepreneurial Competition is positioned at the early stage of innovation and entrepreneurship, especially around the formation, development and pitching of ideas. The main purpose of the competition is to inspire university students to consider the positive impact of technology and business on society, and to stimulate new business concepts while supporting students to develop the skills required to pitch their ideas both virtually and physically.

Participants are not required to provide product prototypes, gather market feedback or other late-stage aspects of an entrepreneurial plan; instead adhering to the concept that all university students participate in a journey of creativity, ideation and communication which facilitates the development of their ideas and dreams into viable, communicable, business concepts.
