Innovate and Inspire: Manitoba’s 2024 Innovation Challenge! – Falling Walls Lab
Get ready to break boundaries and ignite your potential!
  
The University of Manitoba is thrilled to host the exhilarating Falling Walls Lab Manitoba event on September 11, 2024! This is your chance to shine bright and showcase your breakthrough ideas to the world.
  
Falling Walls Lab is not just any pitch competition—it's a global stage for students and early career professionals to pitch their innovative solutions to some of the most pressing challenges facing our planet. Whether you're into technology, science, or arts, if you've got a ground-breaking idea, we want to hear from you!
  
You have until July 15, 2024, to submit your application. Don’t miss your shot at making a real impact!

We're calling on visionaries, creators, innovators, and trailblazers from all disciplines to step forward. Each participant will have 3 electrifying minutes to present their ideas. Impress our panel, and you could be on your way to the Berlin Finals on November 7, 2024, where the world’s brightest minds converge.
  
This is more than a competition; it’s a chance to expand your horizons and connect with leaders and peers across the globe.
  
Are you ready to knock down the walls to a better future? Apply to Falling Walls Lab Manitoba!
