Applications are open for ASTA's annual Entrepreneur of the Year contest.

The contest, which the Dan and Gloria Bohan Foundation started in 2015, seeks "innovators who have either established their own business or who have been responsible for significant entrepreneurial initiatives within an existing organization," ASTA said.

Three finalists will compete on stage at ASTA's Travel Advisor Conference in May in Dallas. The winner will be awarded a $10,000 cash prize.

Applications are open until March 29

Prospective competitors can apply online with a narrative statement, a video describing or demonstrating their product or service and confirmation that they will participate in the Entrepreneur of the Year session in May.

While last year's winner, Cabana, a camper van-rental company, has since shut down, previous recipients include Travefy and TA Toolkit. 

Travefy founder and CEO David Chait called winning the award "a game-changing moment for Travefy that helped us grow our business significantly."

Similarly, TA Toolkit founder and CEO Debby Corwin said the award gave her company both exposure and marketing funds.

Correction: Applications are open until March 29. A previous version had the wrong month.
