Boise State Business Plan
Team MotiFleet Rolls over Chicago and Arkansas
April 13, 2008
The Boise State
University graduate business plan team MotiFleet bested the University
of Chicago and University of Arkansas in the Lightening Round at the New
Venture Championship hosted Friday and Saturday by the University of
Oregon in Portland. With a field of 20 competitors, the team was
commended for their presentation by the judges at the awards ceremony.
For their showing, the team made up of Jonathan Hill, Jenna Strong and
Craig Johnson brought home $1,500. In an earlier semi-final round, the
team lost to the University of Oregon team, TakeShape, which went on to
tie with Brigham Young University’s Klymit team for the Grand Prize of
$50,000
The MotiFleet product is an advanced vehicle fleet information
management system that uses GPS tracking, route optimization and
automated information capture in an online subscription model. The
business plan for the venture was developed as part of their course in
the Boise State MBA program. The team’s advisors are John Glerum,
Director of the Boise State TECenter business incubator and Kent Neupert,
professor in the College of Business & Economics.
The team competes next in the Moot Corp global business plan competition
at the University of Texas - Austin, April 30 - May 3 for a $100,000
award package.
