Rural Innovation Challenge

The Rural Innovation Challenge provides students the opportunity to come up with a venture, innovation, or solution targeted at rural communities with the goal of benefitting the community. These benefits could include improving quality of life, strengthening the local economy through job and/or business creation, or attracting more people to the community.
