The Apprentice-inspired competition aims to find the best event management graduate in the country and is open to all final year event management students, with the prize being an event job at Excel London.
Those selected to take part in the competition will be split into groups and given a brief to create an event.
They will then be invited to London from 1-3 March to present their ideas and take part in a number of challenging event management tasks, which will be marked by a team of industry experts over the entire three days.
Event editor Jeremy King told the paper: "We wanted to tap into youths' use of the internet in a bid to attract the highest number of candidates, to ensure up-and-coming talent is brought into the industry."
He went on to say the process "provides a realistic introduction into what actually happens in the event world and how it works. It's a tough industry to work in and even tougher to be a success".
The deadline for entries has now been extended until January 2011.
