If you think that when entering the Converge Challenge the odds are stacked against you and it may not be worth trying – think again!
First of all, anyone with the right entrepreneurial spirit – which we are also rewarding again this year with a prize – will go for it anyway.
Secondly, somebody mentioned they were unsure whether to apply, since surely we will receive thousands of applications so there is little chance of making it to the next round. Well, here’s the good news for any potential applicants out there: we don’t receive thousands of entries.
In fact, while we are growing year-on-year, based on last year’s entries you have about a 1in3 chance of reaching the Top 30!
