Teams must consist of 2-5 students, ages 13-18. We encourage collaboration without borders, so feel free to invite students from other schools and countries. Each team must have a coach, who is over 18 years old. NOTE: Students who have competed in the past may compete again, as long as they still meet the age and other entrance criteria. Teams from previous years may submit past innovations, only if significant advances or changes have been made since their most recent participation.
