SIFE team members leverage their
personal educational experiences, the expertise of their faculty
advisors, the support of their local business advisory boards,
and the resources of their institutions to implement programs
that create real economic opportunities for members of their
communities. The effectiveness of their programs is judged at
competition. Each national Enactus organization conducts a national
competition, which is judged by leaders from its business
community. At competition, Enactus teams present the results of
their educational outreach projects and compete to determine
which team was most successful at creating economic opportunity
for others. Enactus National Champion teams advance to the top
level of competition, the Enactus World Cup.
