Grace College Awards $5,000 to Visions of Q Studio at 12th Annual Business Plan Competition

Grace College  business administration  major and Marine Corps veteran Quinisha Williams was awarded $5,000 at the 12th annual Grace College Business Plan Competition on Wednesday, April 17. Her apparel printing business, Visions of Q Studio, won the first-place prize. Williams plans to use the $5,000 to help open a custom printing retail shop at 25 Kings Hwy., Winona Lake.

Visions of Q Studio’s mission is to provide high-quality custom apparel printing with no minimums and unlimited colors — all without degrading the print quality.

“I was first told about this new direct-to-film printing method that was building momentum overseas in 2019,” said Williams. “It was a difficult process to learn in the beginning, but the potential proved to be worth the headache.”

In 2021, Williams bought her first commercial DTF printer, and in 2022, the printing method started to earn recognition in the U.S. market.

“After many attempts to launch my own business, I had given up hope that my business would make it past the front door of my home,” said Williams. “I decided to devote my free time to learning the printing method and discovering which consumables and settings achieved the best results.”

By the time the Grace College Business Plan Competition applications were due, Williams was ready to try relaunching her business.

“Although I had a lot going on in my life, I started to believe that maybe this was the time for a successful startup,” said Williams.

In preparation for the competition, Grace’s faculty supported Williams as she finalized details and made her business plan the best it could be. According to Williams, several of her mentors believed that the business had more potential than she did.

“When I won, I was speechless,” said Williams. “The biggest reward for me was when I arrived home and told my children I won — that is when reality set in. My daughters Allessa, Nateri, Alanna, Valerie and Xiomara are why I keep pressing on.”

As Williams reflects on her business journey, she is quick to express appreciation for the support she received at Grace.

“I want to thank Grace College for the opportunity, as well as the judges, the sponsors and everyone involved,” said Williams. “I’m grateful for  Dr. Rick Koontz  and  Professor Melissa Chappell  who helped me see the true potential in what I was doing, as well as  Dr. Jeff Fawcett , who leads a wonderful  School of Business .”

Kinross PS Business Plan

The Kinross PS Business Plan was developed with significant input from the teaching and non-teaching staff and School Board members. As an Independent Public School, Kinross Primary School is shaping the future of our children with a clear vision and purpose focusing on excellence in teaching and learning.

Our Business Plan communicates to all staff, parents and the community the strategic direction of our school and what we want to achieve over a 3-4 year period. As principal, I will regularly report to the School Board, our progress towards implementing the strategies within the Business Plan, as well as the achievement of milestones and targets. Through the development of our Business Plan, we now have a powerful consensus and shared commitment for the future direction of Kinnross Primary.

ByteDance Denies Media Report of Plan to Sell TikTok

BEIJING (Reuters) - ByteDance has no plan to sell TikTok, the company's official account said in a statement posted on Toutiao, a media platform owned by the China-based firm.

The Information earlier reported that ByteDance is exploring scenarios for selling TikTok's U.S. business without the algorithm that recommends videos to TikTok users.

U.S. President Joe Biden on Wednesday signed into law a bill that bans TikTok in the country if its owner, ByteDance, fails to divest the popular short video app over the next nine months to a year.
