A cash prize of $20,000 for first place or $10,000 for second place.
A free US patent filing by Georgia Tech's Office of Technology Licensing (each valued at approximately $20,000) for both the first and second place winners.
A People's Choice Award of $5,000 selected by text voting during the event.
The Winner(s) of the InVenture Prize will automatically be accepted to the Summer '13 Class of Flashpoint, a Georgia Tech startup accelerator program.
