The final moment is here. Three startups. One stage. This year’s finalists take the stage pitching their solutions as they compete to become the 2026 Imagine Cup World Champion, win $100,000 USD, and a mentorship session with Microsoft Chairman and CEO, Satya Nadella. This is where ideas meet execution and where student founders show what it looks like to build with scale in mind.
