MaRS Discovery District and MIT are pleased to invite you to the 4th annual MIT Inclusive Innovation Challenge (IIC): US & Canada Finals.

 


 
This year, the IIC is awarding $1.6 million to entrepreneurs using technology — viable, scalable solutions — that create economic opportunity for workers facing disruption around the world.

The challenge has four focus areas:


- income growth and job creation;
- skills development and opportunity matching;
- financial inclusion; and
- technology access.
 
Join us on September 18th at the MaRS Centre in Toronto, where 12 finalists will pitch their solutions to a panel with expertise in financial and technological inclusion. Four winners (one from each focus area) will be chosen live, each receiving $20,000 and an all-expenses paid trip to MIT, where they will vie to win the $1M grand prize. This unique event will also feature a keynote address by Erik Brynjolfsson, Director of The MIT Initiative on the Digital Economy.
 
Learn more and reserve your spot for this event here.
 
We hope you’ll be able to join us!
