I hope that any aspiring inventors of any and all ages in Salt Lake County, Utah, will consider participating in this wonderful program, "DAVINCI International Innovation and Invention Expo", that is sponsored by Southern Utah University in August of this year. Southern Utah University is a public university located in Cedar City, in the southwestern region of Utah.
Students from 12 different countries are expected to participate in the creation of a total of 125 inventions at this year's event, according to Stephen Allen, Associate Vice President for International Affairs at Southern Utah University. The event is expected to help promote a constructive dialogue among aspiring inventors in a wide variety of countries.
You apparently participate in the event without being physically present on the Southern Utah University campus: "Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the event will be held virtually on August 3-4, 2022", the copyrighted webpage states.
The online announcement about the event also states:
"Supported by Southern Utah University, American Innovation, and Invention Institute, and International Alliance of Innovation and Invention Associations, this expo invites innovators, designers, entrepreneurs, and student inventors around the world to showcase their latest inventions and ideas."
If you want to register to participate in that event, you must e-mail your application BEFORE July 15, 2022. You register either in the "Adult" Group (19 or older ) or the "Youth Group" (under age 19).
"Maximum number of inventors for each registration: 6 inventors
"The winner (in each Category of Competition, and apparently also in each Age Group) will be awarded a gold, silver, or bronze medal.
