ITA Engages Record Number of Students in 2016 Tech Challenge
Summary
Of the record-setting 767 who took the initial exam, 50 qualifying students accepted and traveled to downtown Chicago to take the Final Challenge and compete for $12,500 in prizes. "By exposing hundreds of students from dozens of top national universities to the Chicago tech ecosystem, we are helping to raise the awareness of the opportunities available here for developers and engineers." "Although the competition and prizes are exciting, it is the exposure that Chicago tech receives that is the real winner," said Trisha Degg, ITA Talent Program Director.

Silver sponsors include: Backstop Solutions Group, Conversant, DRW, Herzum, Optiver, PEAK6, and SIM Partners.
