Innovation Challenge

Test your entrepreneurial creativity, meet new friends, learn from founders, and solve a problem. This challenge is open to all Nebraska students and students should register individually. You'll connect with other students and form a team on the first day.

Past challenges include creating value from a mismatched lonely sock, an egg drop into the Acklie Family Courtyard, and building a race car without gas or electric power.
