Championship Round Judging Score Sheet

The Paul J. Holloway Prize Innovation-to-Market Competition honors the student team submitting the best strategies for starting, acquiring, or expanding a business venture. Now in its 24th year, the competition leads to the presentation of cash awards to the winning teams and the runners-up for plans that demonstrate significant opportunities for innovation and growth, capital gain, and the potential for implementation.

Holloway’s wife Anna Grace, son Scott, and daughter Debra established the competition to honor his achievements and contributions to the educational and business communities throughout the region and to stimulate, recognize, and reward the entrepreneurial spirit that is so evident in his own career.
