This is a great opportunity to help local businesses thrive and we are excited that the City of Prince George is joining us.
Candidates must submit a five-page description of their proposal then 6 finalists will receive an initial consultation with MNP professionals to help prepare them to present a live presentation in front of judges.
Three winners will be selected, the first prize is 75 hours of business consulting from MNP, which is valued at over $26,000.
