I am Keith McCord. It’s great to be with you.[Intense, dramatic] The sponsors and volunteer committee members of the Business Model Competition are pleased to welcome you to the 2011 Business Model Competition Final Event. Thank you for joining us today to witness crowning of the Durant Pivot Prize, otherwise known as First Place. We have a fun, great afternoon planned for you. We will hear from the four finalist companies and then crown a winner.Before we get started, I would like to introduce you to some of our distinguished guests:First, let’s have all of the officers, staff, and special committee of our host organization, the BYU Rollins Center for Entrepreneurship & Technology stand and be recognized. Thank you for all the work you put into this.Let’s also recognize the deans of the Marriott School who are here with us today.We’d also like to recognize the generous sponsors for this event:Cornerstone Technologies, producers of tonight’s event. Thanks guys!Gavin Christensen of Kickstart Seed FundNow, let’s turn to the judges for today’s finals.It is with great pleasure that we present to you the author of the game-changing book, The Four Steps to the Epiphany, used in many classes at BYU, and our special guest of honor, Steve Blank. We are so pleased to have you with us today.[If Alex Osterwalder is on Skype] Also, we have another special guest today on Skype, Alex Osterwalder, the author of Business Model Generation, a superb guide to developing a business model.Our last judge today is BYU’s own Dr. Nathan Furr, a professor in Entrepreneurship who teaches business models in his courses and brought the teachings on developing a business model and the author of a new book entitled Nail It Then Scale It. Dr. Furr devised this competition and then went to the BYU Center for Entrepreneurship & Technology, where he found ample support. In fact, he is going to share a bit about this competition, how it got started, its purpose, and where it’s headed. Dr. Furr …4:05Nathan Furr[Nathan shares his vision, the purpose, the history, and scope of the competition] [Nathan’s words]Thank you. Keith, back to you …4:10Keith McCordThanks, Nathan.Now, let’s get this show on the road!Here’s what has happened to far.The BMC, in this its inaugural year, received 45 completed submissions from teams from around the world. About 10 days ago, a large panel of judges reviewed these submissions (comprised of a PowerPoint with audio overlay telling their business model story) and selected 8 semi-finalists. This was an arduous process requiring much time and consideration. The man hours have been significant. Those not making the Top 8 were notified immediately after the decisions were made. The semi-finalists were notified as well.Last Friday, three days ago, these 8 semi-finalists, some coming from across the pond (that’s the Atlantic) vied with live presentations in a closed session with a panel of judges. These judges whittled the number down to four finalists.We will now hear these live presentations from these four finalists. They have been selected to present in random order. They will be timed presentations followed by a Q&A opportunity for the judges.One last reminder to everyone – this is not a business plan competition – we are rewarding entrepreneurial teams that have come up with a hypothesis for a business model, then tested that hypothesis via target customer interaction, pivoted (changed) that business model, until they arrived at a model that would work, or they discovered there was no viable model. How they have done it is as important as what they have done.We’ll have a brief setup break between each presentation.Once all four presentations have been made, the judges will caucus in private while we hear from some speakers. The judges will then return back and announce the winner.Before I forget, these finalists are competing for the honor and the money.4th place gets $3,0003rd place gets $5,0002nd place gets $10,0001st place gets $15,000Also, we have a $1,000 audience choice award where you the audience can select who you think should win.Once again, welcome to the Business Model Competition!Are you ready?!First up is a company called Textwaiter.The floor is yours.[Repeat the above for each till all four are done.][2.
