BIG Idea 2025 Virtual Competition
What is the BIG Idea competition? To promote entrepreneurship, spur creative thinking, and encourage students to start a business.
This competition, launched in 2007, was created through the collaborative efforts of many organizations in South Dakota. This competition is about exposing youth to new ideas and innovation in the hopes that you will view entrepreneurship as an option for your future. Rather than leaving the region to look for a job, you can have the confidence to create your own opportunities close to home and know that there is support for you should you choose to do so. Homegrown businesses are key to the success of our rural communities.
This is the virtual version of the live event, for out of state students.

Dr. Lewis imagined she would be slipping out of the professor role she played for 37 years when she retired and turned her attention to writing contemporary fiction. Instead, she discovered her readers and YouTube audience still latch onto the professor in her when she writes and presents. Once a professor, always a professor!
The Noon Forum is held in the NSU Beulah Williams Library Round Room from 12-1pm on Wednesdays and is sponsored by the College of Arts and Sciences.
