Denver entrepreneur
Tom Higley is putting together a business plan competition that he hopes will bring 10 startup CEOs to Denver for 10 days in October to seek out 10 market opportunities and secure an investment of up to $500,000.

"We are looking for 10 problems with significant market opportunities, 10 would-be CEOs from around the country that would come to Denver for 10 days in October," Higley said. "We will fund three of them, but it won’t be a large amount because we want the CEO to be responsible for raising the money and building the team.
