Hupan students honored

Hupan University, set up exclusively for entrepreneurs, held its honors day celebration on Wednesday with 48 new students selected from more than 2,600 entrepreneur candidates. The enrollment rate is less than 2 percent, down from last year’s 4.07 percent.

The university, founded three years ago by Alibaba Chairman Jack Ma and business tycoons and experts in China, including Liu Chuanzhi, Feng Lun, Guo Guangchang, Shi Yuzhu, Shen Guojun, Qian Yingyi and Cai Hongbing, aims to cultivate a new generation of private entrepreneurs.

This year, more than 2,600 people submitted applications, and 102 innovative entrepreneurs were selected for interview. The age of applicants ranges from 25 to 49 years old, with the average age being 37 years old.

A qualified applicant should have run a company for more than three years with the annual operation revenue higher than 30 million yuan and more than 30 employees. The university has enrolled 119 students in the last three years.
