Teams. Ideas. A panel of judges.

The Guild brings the real problems. You bring the ideas. The best ones win.

Griffith puts a range of real cost-of-living and housing challenges in front of the room.

2

You team up and build

Form a squad, pick a challenge, and get coached by the Campus crew all day.

Pitch it and win

Take the stage, pitch the judges, and the ideas with the most impact take it out.
