REGISTRATIONS for the Pharmacy Guild of Australia's 2018 National Student Business Plan Competition have closed, with 16 teams set to compete for this year's coveted prize.
The high registration result this year follows the success of the 2017 competition and includes multiple registrations from several schools across Australia and NZ, including the University of Auckland and the University of Otago.
The competition, which commenced in 2006, is designed to encourage innovation amongst pharmacy students who will be the future owners of Australia's community pharmacies.
The competition is an initiative of the Pharmacy Guild and is sponsored by Sanofi Consumer Healthcare, EBOS, Gold Cross Products and Services and Pharmaceutical Defence Limited (PDL).
Teams will progress through several rounds culminating in the finals to be held at Pharmacy Connect in Sydney on 07-08 Sep.
$15,000 in cash prizes goes to the top three teams, in addition to registration, flights and accommodation to attend Pharmacy Connect.
