Competition for pupils - creative ideas wanted!

We would like to draw your attention to a great ideas competition for pupils initiated by the VDMA - the German Engineering Federation. The competition accompanies the recently launched Weeks of Technology.

All young people in grades 7 to 13 can take part.
The task is very simple: we are looking for creative, funny or ingenious ideas for inventions that make everyday life easier or solve problems - without any finished prototypes or long texts. A short description as a comment under the competition post on the Instagram channel @talentmaschine or the TikTok channel @talentmaschine is enough.

There are cash prizes with a total value of 2,500 euros to be won

(main prize for the best entry €1,000, plus €500 in each of the three categories: Creativity, Realizability and Wit)
