There are a million business ideas out there. Only very few will get funded to make their idea come to fruition.

From the documentary team behind Science Fair, a new documentary Own the Room follows five entrepreneurs from different corners of the planet vying for the top prize at the annual Global Student Entrepreneur Awards.

The five chosen students included Santosh from a small farming town in Nepal; Alondra works at the register of her family’s bakery in Puerto Rico; Henry is a programming wiz from Nairobi; Jason is a marketing machine from Greece; and Daniel, an immigrant fleeing from the Venezuelan crisis and taking on the chemistry industry from her lab at NYU.

Each of the business hopefuls had to overcome great obstacles in pursuing their dreams from hurricanes to poverty, to even civil unrest. As they represent their countries as the top student entrepreneurs, they’ll have a chance to gain worldwide recognition and the coveted $100,000 grand prize money to make their business dream into reality and change the world.
