How will the winning entries be selected?
Ideas that have the best chances for selection are ones that indicate the greatest potential of bringing about the most benefit. Winning entries will be selected based on fit with four key criteria of the DP Challenge 2008: (1) strength of management team (e.g. evidence of similar experience, track record, etc). (2) project feasibility, (3) social benefits, and (4) measurability. For more details on scoring criteria, please review the Challenge guidelines. Selected teams may be asked to meet with judges via conference call to present their ideas and answer questions. They will take additional time to address gaps the judges noted in the entries.
