Each of these presentations provides an overview of their team’s work using a PechaKucha format (20 slides/20 seconds per slide) addressing the following “Heilmeier” questions:

What are you trying to do? Articulate your objectives using absolutely no jargon.
How is it done today, and what are the limits of current practice?
What is new in your approach and why do you think it will be successful?
Who cares? If you are successful, what difference will it make?
What are the risks?
How much will it cost?
How long will it take?
What are the mid-term and final “exams” to check for success?

The regional winners will now advance to the final VIP Consortium-wide competition. An overall winner will be announced in Summer 2020.
