Registration, Community & Downloads

This is the official registration pathway for the HI-5 Grand Challenge.

People Powered Action

To protect the grassroots, "by the people" spirit of this challenge, please confirm you meet our three core requirements before you begin:

  1. This is a Team Sport: Your team must have 3 or more members. This challenge is built on collaboration. All team members must present their team's submission together.
  2. For the People, By the People: This challenge is for students, spirited creators, indie devs, and small teams. We cannot accept entries from organizations with 11 or more employees, but we can accept entries from their employees if they do not represent the organisation or leverage their resources for an unfair advantage.
  3. Respect: Any public displays of disrespectful behavior will result in immediate disqualification.

This is it. Let's build the future. NOW.
