The Venture Capital Investment Competition (VCIC) is an international investment competition for venture-minded students. It is a one-day-competition taking place in during the spring semester each year. A team of 6 students from each university act as venture capital firms by evaluating  actual start ups for investment options. 

A panel of 8-10 venture capital judges evaluate the student teams on their overall selection and investment offer. Winning teams can earn cash at both the regional and national competition.
