Become a Sponsor
Sponsorship
The Rice Business Plan Competition has grown significantly from its inception in 2001. The RBPC has become a must attend event in Houston and would not be possible without the support of our corporate and individual sponsors. Contributing to the Rice Business Plan Competition is a rewarding opportunity that can directly connect you to helping graduate students become successful entrepreneurs and business leaders.
