AquaHacking Great Lakes Challenge

The AquaHacking Great Lakes Challenge is an immersive, hands-on program that engages students and young professionals to apply their skills to develop innovative tech-based solutions for critical freshwater issues. Through the nine months of the Challenge, participants will have access to expert mentors and workshops. They will get entrepreneurship training and coaching as they prepare to pitch their solutions in our Shark Tank-style competitions.  Finalist teams will compete for $35,000 in seed funding and a spot in a startup incubator.
