Apply for a $7,500 High School InvenTeam® Grant

Do you know high school students who are ready for a real challenge? The InvenTeam Grants Initiative, created by the Lemelson-MIT Program, offers an opportunity for students to cultivate their creativity and solve real-world problems through experiencing invention.

• InvenTeams are teams of high school students, educators, and mentors which receive grants of $7,500 to invent working technological solutions to real-world problems.
• High school educators and their teams may apply for the InvenTeams grant.
• Each InvenTeam chooses its own problem to solve.
• Up to 10 schools will be awarded the InvenTeam grant.

Being on an InvenTeam is a life changing experience. See for yourself what teens can accomplish when they think like inventors!
