Intel® Global Challenge at UC Berkeley

Challenging youth to make a difference

From biomass “smart stoves” in India to Internet banking platforms in Brazil, the Intel Global Challenge showcases new and truly innovative technologies that have the potential to make a positive impact on society. Founded in 2005 as a collaborative effort between Intel and UC Berkeley, the Intel Global Challenge is a business plan competition dedicated to finding new ideas from students around the globe who just might change the world.

 

Each year, young entrepreneurs come from countries all over the world to compete for USD 100,000 in prize money and receive feedback from Silicon Valley leaders and entrepreneurs. Past winners have created technologies such as a biodegradable bone screw, a single pipeline for transporting both oil and gas in industrial settings, and talking interfaces for computers and smartphones.
