For the second straight year, Tennessee will be ‘Open for Business’ during Global Entrepreneurship Week. The video competition asks entrepreneurs throughout the state to answer one simple question, “What makes you an entrepreneur?”
The Tennessee Department of Economic and Community Development will use the winning entries in a department-produced video and print piece intended to identify and promote innovative entrepreneurs in Tennessee communities and encourage others to join them as small business owners.
 
Entries will be accepted July 1 — Oct. 31. Finalists will be selected from five business categories:

• Main Street/downtown
• Home-based
• Agri-business; 
• Arts and entertainment; and 
• Innovation. 

Videos should be no longer than five minutes, and the overall state winner will be announced during Global Entrepreneurship Week.
Complete contest details can be found at the official website. Information on Tennessee’s involvement in Global Entrepreneurship Week will be posted as it is available.
