Innoventure App Design Challenge
The Innoventure App Design Challenge is a competitive event open to middle school youths (grades 6-8), high school youths (grades 9-12), and adults in the El Paso Electric service area.
The App Design Challenge will culminate in the creation of functional apps that promote sustainability, energy efficiency, and environmental conservation. Participants will select the environmental challenges they want to address with their apps. Issues of high interest and importance in El Paso and in southern New Mexico include efficient use of scarce water sources, sustainable and efficient electric power use, high ozone levels, and reducing production of waste. Contest participants may develop apps on environmental stewardship topics that impact individuals, households, or employers of all sizes.
You do not need to know how to code to participate! Participants will be submitting a storyboard and a video pitch for their environmental stewardship app idea. 3 finalists and/or teams will be chosen from each age competition category to work in a hybrid format with app designers June 9-13, 2025, to design their MVP app.
