Could the number of entries in an annual business plan competition be an economic indicator of some sort?  230 teams entered the Wharton Business Plan Competition this year.  That's up from 162 last year and 145 in 2008, according to Forbes.  The competition is open to all students at the University of Pennsylvania, and $75,000 in prizes is at stake.  Health care was big in this year's competition--five of the seven finalists are business plans that are in or related to the health sector.  You can read about the finalists, and learn the winner, at Forbes.  Click here.
