This initiative was built with 1 clear purpose: to give back as much as possible to student researchers around the world.
Unlike many competitions built to generate profit, this is a nonprofit global research challenge. Both organizations are choosing not to profit from this initiative. Instead, proceeds are being redirected into student scholarships, awards, and recognition.
This competition has finished. The listing remains available as a public record of the initiative.
