How do I participate?
Register
To participate in Challenges, you need to register on our platform first.
Participant Criteria
There are no requirements concerning age or educational background. This challenge is open for any ambitious mind determined to make an impact and provide an innovative approach to the topic - no matter if student, researcher, Startup, etc. The language of this Challenge is English.
Remember your participation is not binding until you submit the form, and the qualification phase ends. You can always withdraw your submission until then. After the deadline, we will count you in. If you should not be able to take part after all, just contact us, we will find a solution.
Participation options
Participate alone
You may participate without a team by clicking the button ‘Join now’ and then choosing the option ‘Participate Alone’ in the following Pop Up. Should you change your mind during the Challenge and decide to team up with others, you can do so as well. You can find out about other options down below.
Participate as a Team
You already have people you want to participate with? Great! One of you has to klick the button ’Join now’ and choose ‘Found your own team’. If you already have all the members you need, ignore the last question “What's the need of your team?” in the Pop Up. If you are open to let new members in, fill it in so others can send you a request to join your team. Now all of your team members can request to join the team you created in the Tab ‘Teams’. Remember, they must be registered on the platform to join the team. Every team member is equal, there is no leading position.
Important If you want to participate as a team, every team member who wants to be considered needs to be a registered participant on our platform.
Join existing Team
You would like to participate as a part of a team, but don’t have anyone to team up with? Not a problem! Under the Tab Teams you will find an overview of all the teams who are searching for members. Request to join if your skills match what they are looking for. Good luck! You can apply for as many teams as you like until you have found the right team to join.
