High School Division

The high school teams provide the same information as do all of the teams, but are judged in a separate track, based on their age and experience.

Some significant differences:

• Teams are invited to participate in Problems That Matter
  • Great way to engage with ND network and other high school teams
  • Design Thinking theories to help take a deeper dive into the problem your venture is solving
• Their initial involvement ends at Round 2
• Winners are decided by a diverse panel of judges to determine top 3 places
• Sponsor selects best women led venture despite scoring position
• All participants are invited and encouraged to participate in the Startup Showcase- April 26, 2024
  • Teams are eligible for Best Presentation Startup Showcase Awards
• Top scoring team is invited to present live on stage at the final event- April 26, 2024
