Eligibility: 

To be eligible to participate in the 2025 Youth Innovation Showcase, you must: 

• Be between 12 and 19 years old 

• Live in British Columbia or the Yukon

Individuals and teams (2 people maximum) are invited to participate and will be divided into one of two age categories: 12 to 15 years old, and 16 to 19 years old. The two age categories will be evaluated separately; there is one $5,000 grand prize for each age category. 

Your project must be an innovation. Projects that have won the Youth Innovation Showcase competition in previous years are not eligible to participate.

Registration

Youth ages 12 to 19 are invited to register by submitting a 45-second pitch video explaining their latest innovation and why the world needs to know about it.

Note: Each participant will need to register separately but if you are working with a partner, please include their name in registration and ensure you submit the same project name. 

Project Submission

Once participants have registered, they will be directed to the Project Submission where they will be able to upload their 45-second Pitch Video, 3 minute About the Innovator video, a 1-page Innovation Report and photos. Max size for each file is 5GB.

Note: Each project needs to be submitted once. If you are working with a partner, please ensure you are not both submitting the project. 
 

Awards Show 

Finalists will attend the Awards Show where they will receive feedback from judges and the winner(s) of each age category will be presented with $5,000.
