2011 "I Am an Entrepreneur" Photography Contest:
Call For Entries - Deadline March 31st, 2011

The SEVEN Fund is pleased to announce the "I Am an Entrepreneur" photography competition. This competition recognizes the outstanding use of photography to tell compelling stories of role model entrepreneurs from around the world. Anyone is welcome to participate in this competition. The competition will award twelve (12) prizes, one per month, over a period of one year. Each month, one finalist will be selected and will receive a prize of $100. The grand prize winner (selected from among the 12 finalist photographs) will receive $1,000 at the end of the year.

Often, the imagery associated with developing nations captures the misery that accompanies poverty. These images focus on the problems of poverty rather than on solutions. While it is important that these things are taken seriously and are documented, we believe that developing nations also represent tremendous opportunities for hope and dignity. The "I am an Entrepreneur" competition strives to reframe the dialogue around solutions to poverty by infusing the world's imagination with new imagery that focuses on entrepreneurship. While we don't wish to obscure the ravages of poverty, we do want to focus on ways out of poverty. Our objective with this competition is to gather stunning photographs profiling individual entrepreneurs from around the globe.
  • Winning photos will be chosen every four months - Deadlines for photo submission are March 31st, June 30th, September 30th, and December 31st by 12:00AM EST -Photos submitted after the last day of these months will be eligible for the prize to be awarded in the next quarter.
  • The competition will run from January 2011 to December 2011. The first of three finalist prizes will be awarded on April 30, 2011. The grand prize will be awarded on January 30, 2012.
