The Appel Family turned family recipes for household cleaners into
international powerhouse brands such as OxiClean, Orange Glo,
and Kaboom. They used infomercials in innovative ways, leveraged
outsourcing before it was widespread, and made their category
exciting for consumers.
Joel and his parents, Max and Elaine, will sit back and tell us about
their journey of taking the Orange Glo Corporation from garage to
global, and where they are now. Joel Appel, Founder
& CEO Launch Pad

2014 Business Plan Competition Sponsorship Opportunities
The Jake Jabs Center Business Plan Competition is one of the
foremost events for early-stage companies in Colorado. 2014
marks the 13th year of the competition, which seeks to promote
the development of high-caliber business ideas, recognize the
most outstanding plans with more than $50,000 in cash and in-
kind awards, and encourage the creation of new businesses.
Supporting the Business Plan Competition supports the growth
and development of new companies. This year’s Business Plan
Competition is expanding to graduate students at state
universities in Colorado, Wyoming, and Montana.
Audience: The event is attended by students, alumni, and
leaders of the business community. Over 3,000 people are
invited, and many business leaders support the event annually.
Attendance: An average of 250 people attend the luncheon
event, with an average of 50 entrants in the competition.
Media Coverage: Past competitions have been covered in
9News, the Denver Post and Business Journal, and
sponsorships are promoted internally and through the University
and Jake Jabs Center communications.
This year exposure will also include CBS4, and an
Advertisement will run in the Business Journal after the
competition.

After winning the 2013 competition,
Neil Smith launched Allergy
Solutions, Inc. in July 2013. The
company has continued to grow in
the past year, as have many other
competition applicants and finalists
from previous years.
The first year they didn't even make
the finals. However, the judges’
feedback was very useful. Taking a
course taught by the Jabs Center
was a great source of inspiration
and honest feedback for their
business model. Feedback from the
competition judges helped refine the
business idea and presentation into
a winning model
Neil says, “The financial prize from
the Jabs Center business plan
competition was very helpful in
launching Allergy Solutions,” and,
“The feedback that I received by
participating in the competition two
years in a row has been even more
valuable.”
Please consider sponsoring this event.
