July/August 2017: STAGE 1
A panel of design and engineering professionals in each region select the National Winner and finalists.
The judges will select one national winner and up to 4 additional entries per region to advance to the next level of the competition.
September 7: National Winners & Finalists Announced.
August/September 2017: STAGE 2
Dyson engineers identify the International Top 20 entries.
The 115 entries chosen by local judges move on to a panel of Dyson design engineers who further scrutinise the projects. The Top 20 entries selected by Dyson engineers will move on to the final round – there will not necessarily be one entry selected from each country.
September 28: Dyson Engineers Shortlist.
September/October 2017: STAGE 3
James Dyson chooses the international winner.
The Top 20 move on to the final stage – a review by James Dyson. James reviews each entry and determines his favourites, which are then scrutinised by the IP team at Dyson. They will look at each entry to spot any infringements on third party intellectual property. James then selects the international winner.
October 26 2017: International Winner Announced.
