The finalists must submit full business plans and posters of their business ideas. The full business plan is limited to 40 pages.

Submissions consist of a full business plan describing the service or product, an estimation of the realism and size of the market, an explanation of the competitive advantage your idea possesses, a thorough analysis of how the business will be funded, an operational plan covering logistical issues and a brief description of the skills, commitment and other qualities that you and any team members would bring to the process of realising the idea. Submissions to the 3P competition should also give a compelling description of their social or environmental purpose.
