US Imagine Cup
College students from across America will showcase their innovative creations in the U.S. finals of Imagine Cup 2008 next week in LA.
This year's theme is around the environment or how to use technology to help sustain the environment!
The student finalists worked for months to design their own software programs, video games and digital photo essays to get into this event. The event is a full three-day event where besides networking, competition, and a valuable experience winners could get generous cash prizes, invaluable exposure to experts in entrepreneurship and innovation, and a springboard to start their careers.
Now in its sixth year, Microsoft's Imagine Cup seeks to channel the enterprise, ingenuity and technology prowess of the world's students into groundbreaking solutions that address real-world issues and challenges. In the U.S., more than 16,000 students registered to compete this year from over 125 colleges across the country. The winners of the U.S. finals will have a chance to advance to the Imagine Cup worldwide finals in Paris from July 3 to 8, where they will pit their imagination and passion against the best young programmers, technologists, designers and digital artists from around the world. Globally, more than 185,000 students from 100 countries registered for the Imagine Cup.
Love to see the results...
