IC08: Team SOAK from Australia win the coveted Imagine Cup
Last week David, Long, Dimaz, and Ed, were four ordinary University Students, from four regular Australian Universities. But these four students are far from ordinary. They won the Imagine Cup!
Already there have been press briefings, video interviews, and media updates. But tonight we party, for tomorrow we bring home the Imagine Cup to Australia, for the first time ever!
Oh yes, they also won one of 6 "Solution Accelerator" Awards too. This is sponsored by British Telecom, and involves 6 months of tutoring, with 2 weeks in Silicon Valley, to accelerate their innovation and pitch it to Venture Capitalists.
Well done Team SOAK! I've enjoyed every minute this week. You guys Rock!
