Hult prize in Aksum university 2017-2018

Drafted proposal

Introduction
An element of the mission statement of the Aksum University is the production of leaders in enterprise development. Translated, this means that Aksum University must produce students who are self-reliant and innovative as they face the world of work. However, there is a gap between the school curriculum and the requirements of the world of self-employment as revealed by several researches. Many graduates lack the entrepreneurial mindset and intention which is best instilled via entrepreneurial and soft skills. Ethiopia releases an estimated 2,000,000 youth into the job market every year out of which a staggering 32.2 percent remain unemployed. This compares rather badly with Ethiopia’s neighbours. A United Nations Human Development report reveals that as at the end of last year (2016) youth unemployment in Tanzania stood at 5.2 per cent and 4.0 per cent in Uganda. In Rwanda and Burundi, the unemployment rate was at 3.3 per cent and 3.1 per cent respectively.
Need and Solution
There is need to arrest the runaway youth unemployment in Ethiopia and any effort towards this end should be welcomed and supported. A partial solution can be found in the Hult Prize on Campus program in Aksum University

The Hult Prize on Campus Program
Founded by Ahmad Ashkar in 2009, the Hult Prize is a partnership between the Hult International Business School and the United Nations. The Hult Prize is a start-up accelerator for budding young social entrepreneurs emerging from universities around the world. The annual competition for the Hult Prize aims to build and launch the most compelling social business ideas- start-up enterprises that tackle grave issues faced by billions of people every day. The winning team receives USD1 million in seed capital. The aim of the Hult Prize is to breed the next generation of social entrepreneurs and ultimately launch a start-up social enterprise that can radically change the world.

The Hult Prize on Campus Program brings the Hult Prize directly to universities around the world. Run entirely by volunteer student campus directors, the Hult Prize on Campus Program gives students a vital role to play in changing the trajectory of the world’s toughest challenges, starting in their communities and countries.

The Hult Prize on Campus Program at Aksum University
Aksum University has been selected as one of the universities eligible to host the Hult Prize on Campus Program starting October 2017 with the finals for the event scheduled for December 30, 2017. The local competition will give the university’s winning team the chance to bypass the general application round and fast track into the quarter-finals to be held in March, 2018. The quarter finals next year (2018) with 15 cities being ,Nairobi ,Boston, San Francisco, London, Dubai, Shanghai, Toronto, Mexico City, Quito, Bogota, Melbourne, Lagos, Cairo, Tunis, Kuala Lumpur and Singapore ,we can select the nearest city for us .
50 teams from the quarter-finals will proceed to the semi-finals, an 8 week accelerator at the Ashridge Castle in the United Kingdom starting July, 2018, accommodation catered for. The accelerator transforms student ideas to global businesses through live-work programs that leverage leading business, academic, and legal experts. 6 teams will then advance to pitch for $1 million in seed capital at the United Nations headquarters in New York in September, 2018.
