The BYU College of Engineering's Weidman Center for Global Leadership hosts a student competition each year in partnership with the BYU Rollins Center for Entrepreneurship & Technology. The annual SIOY competition has kickstarted now-successful companies Owlet, Khione, PhoneSoap, MyoStorm and more across its 15-year history. Competitors can receive up to $400 in funding to facilitate prototyping, research, etc., and are in the running for a part of $50k in total prize money.

Competitors present their innovations at a showcase on February 10, 2026. Finalists are selected to present their ideas in a final event on February 26, 2026. Winners and audience favorites then receive thousands of dollars of prize money to make their ideas a reality.
