JCI Best Business Plan Competition

What is JCI BBP?
Partnered with the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC), JCI Local Organizations host the annual JCI Best Business Plan Competition (JCI BBP). It's clear that businesses produce profit and drive economies. However, in a globalized world, it is essential for young innovators to use their social values to positively impact their local communities through commerce. Through JCI BBP, young entrepreneurs are awarded for integrating the principles of social responsibility into their businesses. Social responsibility principles include human rights, labor, environment and anti-corruption. Business plans focused on a local level help fight youth migration out of local communities. This program praises businesses who follow the principles of Corporate Social Responsibilty and improve the community with their everyday practices. This competition awards and showcases young entrepreneurs and their ideas as they create positive change through local commerce.
