It’s truly a pleasure to see so many talented teams from across the globe come so far. The quality and quantity of ideas that we have seen is incredible, and to see these teams execute on those ideas and develop working solutions in such a short timeframe is awe inspiring. My sincerest congratulations to all of the teams who competed in our National and Online Finals, to the 150 teams that made it to World Semifinals, and now the 33 teams who will fly to Seattle for an unforgettable World Finals. It is truly an honor and a privilege to see your dreams come to life.
Life for these 33 teams is about to hit high gear! These World Finalists will continue to develop and improve their projects to get them ready for the World Finals judges at the end of July. Incredible prizes are on the line and one team will win a
