Lextech will provide technology expertise for the 2008 Whiteboard Challenge held on June 17th. This event gives local applicants an opportunity to present their innovative ideas to members of the Chicago entrepreneurial community and a chance win a $5,000 prize courtesy of Bell, Boyd & Lloyd.

Presenters have 5 minutes to describe their innovative idea, business concept or solution to a known problem to a panel of experts using an interactive whiteboard system. Lextech will provide the interactive systems and act as a technology resource. Recording devices will be set up on the whiteboards to capture and display each presenterʼs notes and drawings on additional screens.

“As an active member of the Chicagoland entrepreneurial community, Lextech understands the need to encourage new innovations and novel ideas that can be the catalyst for future growth,” says Program Leader of Early Market Partners, Inc. David Smith, “We are delighted to have their involvement in the 2008 Whiteboard Challenge as a demonstration of their commitment to the vitality of our local technology community.”

Submit your innovation or learn more about the event at http://www.mitefchicago.org. Applications are due by May 18, 2008. Final presenters will be selected by a team of experienced entrepreneurs by June 2, 2008.
