Build-A-Thon 2024 Elimination Challenge graphic.

 

A dragon roams the Lands of Ignition, awaiting the intrepid integrators who will compete to be the 2024 Build-a-Thon champion. In last year’s competition, the dragon was a fearsome foe, but this year’s tournament has a fun new twist — the dragon will instead be an ally for the competitors and, what’s more, it’ll fly!

So, who will be embarking on this skyward adventure?

After reviewing numerous applications we’ve selected 26 challengers who will put their Ignition knowledge to the test. Some will be returning to the Lands of Ignition this year, while others will be traveling the perilous trail for the first time. Their journey will commence with the elimination challenge this summer, which the entire Ignition community is invited to watch. This challenge will determine the final two teams who’ll go on to compete live at the grand finale during the 2024 Ignition Community Conference (ICC). You won’t want to miss it!

With great excitement, we give you the 2024 Build-a-Thon competitors:

Congratulations to our competitors! We wish you luck on your adventure through the Lands of Ignition. May your wits and Ignition wisdom guide you through the treacherous realm.

Be sure to tune into YouTube live on August 1st at 1 PM PDT to cheer on these brave competitors and watch the beginning of their journey unfold. And mark your calendars for September 17–19 so you can attend the thrilling conclusion to the Build-a-Thon in person at ICC — registration will be open soon!
