Enactus places fourth at National Entrepreneurship Competition
Competing against teams from colleges and universities across the country, Belmont’s Enactus team made a statement at the April 16 national competition when they came in fourth place. With 533 teams consisting of more than 16,800 students in the United States, Enactus USA held its National Exposition and competition in St. Louis, Missouri, where the Belmont team stood toe-to-toe and came out victorious against much larger institutions, including the University of Oklahoma, University of Florida Gainesville and last year’s national champion, Texas State University.
