This year's theme is Sports Innovation, Data & Analytics. Participants will have the chance to compete for cool tech prizes (new Fitbits, earbuds, headphones, Echo Dots, and other swag), network with potential employers (best chance you will have!), and even land a spot in CREATE-X's Startup Launch program ($4,000). There are currently four challenges available, but we are also open to any sport-related ideas. Corporate partners include Turner Sports, Experience App, EarthLink, Accenture, AT&T, and others.

Georgia Tech Athletics has sponsored multiple teams from past competitions to build out their ideas into viable startup prototypes.

This year, that could be you!

Intended for undergrad and graduate students.
