“This competition is about more than just winning,” said Thomas Oltorik, previous Innovation Challenge winner. “It’s about getting feedback on your idea and connecting with the right people to succeed. Thanks to this competition, I’m about to launch my product at a nationally renowned outdoor retail store.”
