Value Investing Challenge

Brought to you by Value Investing Congress and SumZero

We are pleased to announce the first ever Value Investing Challenge, brought to you by the Value Investing Congress and SumZero.

The winner of the Challenge will have the opportunity to present his/her best idea at the upcoming Value Investing Congress in New York City this October, in front of more than 500 of the world's most well-respected investors (and 100 financial journalists) from around the globe.

We are looking for your finest investment idea. That is all. There are no restrictions on style, strategy, asset class or even geography. All that we require is a 500-word minimum thesis, focusing on a business with at least $300 million in market capitalization. Added preference will be given for larger, more liquid ideas. Your submissions will be evaluated by a team of famous value investors with several decades of investing experience between them.

We designed the Value Investing Challenge to encourage high-quality investment research, unearth top investing talent, and level the playing field so that lesser-known (but equally-brilliant) investors had the opportunity to present in front of the same audience as high-profile investors such as David Einhorn and Bill Ackman. This is your chance to steal the spot-light from legends.

Begin submitting your ideas today! The contest will end on August 17th and winners will be announced on September 18th.
