BUSINESS Plan Competition: The 14th National Student Business Plan Competition is now underway - testing the flair and entrepreneurship of students preparing for a career in community pharmacy.
The Pharmacy Guild of Australia's 2021 competition was launched during the Annual NAPSA Congress; this year presented in a virtual format due to COVID-19.
The Guild hosted the "Where are they now?" panel session, which highlighted the career journeys of four previous winners of the competition.
Each of the panellists praised the competition for providing them with the networking opportunities, knowledge and insight to grow their business acumen and develop their pharmacy management skills.
Each of the past winners has enjoyed career opportunities across Australia. From the beaches of the Whitsundays to the paddocks of rural Victoria, the competition winners are driving local health outcomes and achieving their management and ownership goals.
The competition, which commenced in 2006, has been designed to encourage innovation among pharmacy students who will be the future owners of Australian and New Zealand community pharmacies.
The competition guidelines and webpage were also launched at the congress.
