Student Competitions in North America

North America anchors some of the world's most prestigious student competitions in business, technology, science and design. Ivy League case competitions, Silicon Valley startup challenges, NASA student research grants and New York fashion competitions draw entries from students globally. Many are open to international students studying in the United States and Canada, and some specifically encourage applications from outside North America to strengthen the diversity of ideas. Prize pools frequently include internship placements, venture funding referrals and direct industry mentorship.
