The only issue I see with this is that in the manual it says that any team submitting will be considered. The only thinge for the entrpreneurship award that the judges are required to do is read your submission. My team ran into this at North Star, where the girl who put our business plan together waited in and around our pit for the entire day mistakenly thinking judges would come and speak with her.
I'll leave finding exactly where an explanation of the Entrepreneurship Award is as an exercise to the diligent reader.
EDIT: The precise wording is "A team is eligible to win the Entrepreneurship Award at any event they participate in."
So it depends on the definition of participation- I'd argue that if you're competing for EI, you are by definition participating in the event.
