Each year, 1776, a global incubator and venture fund, hosts a worldwide tournament called the Challenge Cup. Together with its Startup Federation partners, Revolution, the Global Entrepreneurship Network (GEN), and over 50 incubator hosts around the world, 1776 will discover the most promising, highly scalable startups that are poised to solve the major challenges of our time.

Startups advance through three rounds: Local, Regional and Global Finals. All of the regional winners and a host of wild cards will be invited to participate in the Challenge Cup Global Finals next June in Washington, D.C. There, startups will compete for over US$1 million in prizes, as well as spend time with the investors, customers, media, and other key connections that can help them succeed on a global scale.
