March Madness for the Mind

I just heard about this cool event, March Madness for the Mind, a free, public showcase of student innovation. It’s put on by the National Collegiate Inventors and Innovators Alliance (NCIIA) and will be held this year at the Exploratium on March 27, 2010.  The event is an opportunity for the nation’s top Excellence and Entrepreneurship Teams (E-Teams)—collaborating groups of college students, faculty and industry mentors who have received NCIIA grants—to unveil their inventions to the public, many for the first time. More than fifteen E-Teams will display their state-of-the-art innovations during the exhibition.  It sounds very interesting.
