Applications are open until May 9th worldwide.
In March, at Autodesk's headquarters in San Francisco, the leaders of the MIT IDE (MIT Initiative on the Digital Economy), with the support and partnership of the Autodesk Foundation, officially launched a competition for entrepreneurs around the world. This is the CII (MIT Inclusive Innovation Challenge), the main award of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), which will award US $ 1.6 million to entrepreneurs who use technology to revolutionize work and boost economic opportunities in the era digital. This is a global competition and entries are open until the 9th of May.
For the past three years, the Inclusive Innovation Challenge (CII) – sponsored by MIT's Digital Economy Initiative (IDE) – has challenged entrepreneurs around the world to reinvent the way technological innovation is harnessed. The initiative serves as a catalyst to accelerate entrepreneurs who are already turning projects into reality. In addition, the challenge wants to drive a solution-oriented conversation about the future of work.
For this year's tournament, it was announced that the prize pool will award US $ 1.6 million to the winners. The challenge will take place on five continents. Regional finalists will be announced on July 23. In November, a big event will be held to welcome all the winners.
Since 2016, 3,000 organizations have registered in over 100 countries. Success has been far-reaching so far. A total of US$ 3.5 million has already been distributed among the approximately 100 winners, with solutions for the most different sectors and areas.
