International Space Apps Challenge Winners
The International Space Apps Challenge joined together more than 2,000 people from around the world to create solutions of global importance related to spaceflight.

The International Space Apps Challenge took place on April 21 - 22 in 24 cities around the world and produced more than 100 solutions to 61 unique challenges. Following the event, Innovation Endeavors and Talenthouse, launched a campaign to find and support the best innovations from the Space Apps Challenge.

“The Space Apps Challenge is truly fostering innovation by creating the perfect environment for the best minds in the world to come together and solve challenges that we all face,” said Dror Bernan, Managing Director of Innovation Endeavors. “NASA provided the data, code and platform for collaboration and we are here to support the best innovations coming out of this challenge and help these teams launch their ideas.”

Thirty-six teams from around the world were nominated for global recognition and invited to create video presentations of their solutions that are now available to view online. The online video submissions were available for public support voting from May 9th and then reviewed by a global judging panel for selection of winners.
