News | Calling all budding filmmakers - European Entrepreneurship Video Award 2010
The European Commission is encouraging enterprising film lovers to prove their creativity and skills by producing a short video that deals with the following questions: What is entrepreneurship all about? What could encourage people to become entrepreneurs? What could counteract old prejudices and offer new visions of entrepreneurship?
The European Commission is awarding prizes in the following three categories:
- "Entrepreneurship – A different way of life"
- "Entrepreneurship – Challenges and rewards"
- "Entrepreneurship – The way into the future"
The winning video in each of the three categories will be awarded €3,333, the videos in second place will be awarded €2,222, and those in third place will receive €1,111. Each prize will be a lump sum and is not intended to cover the production costs of the videos or any other expenses. Five additional "special winners" will be awarded € 555 each. These special prizes are reserved for persons aged 25 or younger.
The producers of the best videos will be invited to a special award ceremony on 25 May 2010 in Brussels, as part of the 2nd European SME Week.
The deadline for submissions is 9 April 2010
