TCO02 Did You Know?

The girls in STEM program, sponsored by Intel was a huge success. More than 50 students came to TCO19 and learned how to program a drone, toured the arena, and heard a panel from some exciting women in STEM careers.

TCO19 featured a fantastic Innovation Summit and as part of that was a panel led by NASA’s Steve Rader featuring Topcoder members: PereViki, thomaskranitsas, birdofpreyru, and scott_wu.

TCO19 was the first-ever tournament where a finalist won both the Algorithm and Marathon Match Championship. Congrats to tourist for winning that honor!
