Guidebooks

The Innoventure Competition Guidebook outlines all the details about the competition, including: theme, detailed descriptions of each component, competition requirements, deadlines, and team rules. Teachers and teams should reference their guidebook at every team meeting.

There are two competition guidebooks, one for middle schools and one for high schools. The competition requirements and judging requirements are slightly different between middle and high schools. Please make sure you download the correct guidebook.

The Business Plan Handbook is a helpful resource for teachers and students. This handbook serves as a general reference for writing a business plan and can be used by both middle schools and high schools.

At the beginning of the semester, it is important for both teachers and students to read the entire guidebook. Students should have a general understanding of all the competition requirements before beginning work. Also, it is a good practice to develop a master schedule that reflects project tasks, team member responsibilities, and deadlines.
