The Competition

For 2022, All-Innovate will be in-person. Information will be available from Trinity term. Prizes will be awarded to the strongest ideas that are addressing real challenges and can achieve impact. The competition aims to encourage all students at Oxford, regardless of discipline or level of study, to develop an entrepreneurial skill set and generate entrepreneurial ideas. This year, applicants will be offered a place on workshops designed to support them in developing their ideas. Our expert judges will shortlist the top two applications from each college. These teams will be invited to a selection round in which they will pitch their ideas and from this point, the remaining 10 teams will then go on to pitch at the All-Innovate final. The Entrepreneurship Centre will also be offering further support and guidance to the winners, post-programme.
