Competition The SJSU Silicon Valley Business Plan Competition (SVBPC) spans the academic year andculminates with the final round of judging each year in June on the SJSU campus. The primarypurpose of the SVBPC is to create start ups. This creates a real world emphasis that encouragesstudents to think about entrepreneurship as their career of choice as opposed to seeking thesecurity of a salaried position. The SVBPC also encourages innovation on the SJSU campus, rewards student participationin new venture creation, and increases recognition of SJSU’s contribution to entrepreneurship inthe greater San Jose metropolitan area. As such, the SVBPC is a regional competition, and each team submitting a business planmust have at least one SJSU currently

Wherever education is inadequate, it has been noted that:1 Students know little about work. Students have no clear idea about what they must do to enter a particular career or occupation. Students do not know what might be expected of them at work since the teaching environment bears little to no resemblance to the engineering environment found in industrial companies. Schools do not teach the attitudes and maturity needed on the job. Schools isolate
