Each Seminole Innovator Lunch Hour closes with a design challenge. Students develop a solution to the design challenge to pitch at the next lunch hour. One idea per student presented on a single slide (think infographic). Entries are judged on impact and feasibility! Attendees vote on the solutions with prizes awarded to the top idea. The participant with the number one solution has their name engraved on the Ideathon trophy displayed in the Innovation Hub.
