You're reading it wrong: if the winning team has fewer than 10 employees, the team gets $50,000. 10 or more, the team gets no cash, just bragging rights.

they probably want a company that can actually develop said idea instead of just squat on the idea or any patent. I can come up with a good idea but execution counts.
