Jason Langford is one of the winners of the 2009 FAU Business Plan Competition. In his own words:

“The business plan competition at the FAU Adams Center for Entrepreneurship was a tremendously beneficial experience to be a part of from start to finish. Placing third in the investment intensive track was truly the icing on the cake of a fun-filled and rewarding activity. Having the opportunity to speak with and learn from real-life venture capitalists and high-powered business executives from throughout the South Florida community is something I am very grateful to FAU for. As I will graduate with my MBA from FAU this summer, the competition represented an excellent way to pull together everything I have learned over the years at FAU and put my knowledge and business acumen to the test. I wholeheartedly encourage students and alumni alike to participate in this fast-paced, challenging and rewarding competition.”
