To Copy and Customize for Your Event

From our shared Google folder. Links below will prompt you to make your own copy. You’ll see in the checklist that we recommend making separate shared folders for teams, judges and startups.

These are Google Docs and will prompt you to make your own copy.

Judging and Voting

These assume team code names Ash, Birch, Cherry, Dogwood, Elm and Fir.
Regional hosts will coordinate with VCIC HQ.

Judging Form

Judges take notes for feedback and score teams on these forms (not shared with teams).

Regional: Judge Voting

Judges vote for their #1, #2 and #3 teams for each phase of the competition.

Internal: Judge Voting

Email vcic@unc.edu and we’ll set up online voting for your event just like the regionals.

WHAT IS YOUR LEGACY: BRING VCIC TO YOUR CAMPUS

A VCIC event on your campus is good for your school, good for your classmates and good for your career. If you are going to be an officer in your Entrepreneurship or Venture Capital Club, there is no better service to your school or your classmates than organizing a VCIC event. You have two choices:

1. Organize Your Own Internal VCIC

  • 10 to 40 of your classmates experience this one–of–a–kind event
  • The best way to select the most competitive team for your school
  • The last five national champions began by winning an internal event

2. Host a VCIC Region

  • Great for reputation building for your school and networking for yourself.
  • See the list of past VCIC hosts – you will be in good company.
  • You must apply by April 30 to be considered for the following year.

If you choose to host a VCIC event, we are here to help. You will not have to reinvent the wheel. We have all the materials to make your job as easy as possible. If you host a region, we will send a UNC VCIC representative to help run the logistics for the event. We also help with recruiting VC judges and startups. More at host commitments. 

If you have any questions about hosting a VCIC event, please contact Patrick Vernon at vcic@unc.edu.
