Wiscontrepreneur Challenge winners collect $300 for prize

By: The Daily Cardinal /The Daily Cardinal  - April 30, 2008




The winners of the 100-hour Wiscontrepreneur Challenge will be recognized by Chancellor John Wiley and representatives of the Kauffman Campus advisory committee Wednesday.

The winners participated in the challenge on April 17 to try and make the best project possible with $10 to spend on “Surplus With a Purpose” materials.

Judges critiqued the participants in three categories and awarded the best with $300.

Matthew Manske won in the “most creative” category with his “I pedal,” designed to help power hand-held devices by using the energy from riding a bicycle.

Anastasiya Kvit’s project won in the category of “most value.” She created a colorful UFO coffee table that also won her the “People’s Choice” award and an additional $100.

Jonathon Jackson and Peter Dykstra tied for “most social value created.” Dykstra’s project, “The Space Heater Safety Alarm,” warns users when their space heater has become a risk. Jackson won for his ideas to further market the university’s “We Conserve” campaign.
