The Québec Entrepreneurship Contest is a unique event in many ways. It targets a niche that has not been filled by other entrepreneurship contests, focusing on young people in schools and on new entrepreneurs who are often at the business planning stage. In addition, it is the only Québec contest to offer such large prizes, not to mention that it is open to anyone who resides in Québec. 1, record 4, English, - Qu%C3%A9bec%20Entrepreneurship%20Contest

Le Concours québécois en entrepreneuriat est, à plusieurs égards, un phénomène unique en son genre. Il rejoint un créneau qui n'est pas desservi par les autres concours en entrepreneuriat, car il cible les jeunes du milieu scolaire et les tout nouveaux entrepreneurs qui sont bien souvent au stade du plan d'affaires. En outre, il est le seul concours québécois à offrir des bourses et des prix d'une aussi grande valeur, sans oublier qu'il s'adresse à toute personne résidant au Québec. 1, record 4, French, - Concours%20qu%C3%A9b%C3%A9cois%20en%20entrepreneuriat
