Washington, DC (PRWEB) July 10, 2013 -- Search Engine Academy Washington DC (SEA DC) is part of a national panel of judges selected to evaluate and recommend the winners of the Miller Lite Tap The Future business idea contest. Entrepreneurs will submit their proposals to capture a share of $400,000 prize money to build their business.
Nancy E. Wigal, the owner/operator of SEA DC was contacted by the National Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce (NGLCC) to submit her name for consideration. "I'm a member of the NGLCC, and from time to time they email out opportunities to us to participate in different business events. This came along, and I thought it looked really cool - I thought I would get a good idea of business trends and emerging technology to learn about."
Competitors have until August to submit their plans. Nancy will be given online access to a certain number of plans to review and judge, using criteria and an evaluation supplied by Miller Lite. Once the evaluations have been completed, the selectees will present their idea to a panel of subject matter experts that include Daymond John of ABC Television's Shark Tank.
Luis Roberto Castelló of The Flowers Communications Group in Chicago, Illinois, is coordinating the judging panel.
According to Nancy, "This is a great opportunity to see what other businesses perceive as consumer demand, as well as business to business (B2B) needs. I'm sure I'll learn a great deal from helping with the evaluation process."
Businesses that submit their ideas will also get advice and mentoring from various business experts selected by Miller Lite.
