Thank You
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to all students, mentors, schools, and partners who made ICO 2025 a global success.
Together, we are building a generation of changemakers who are truly coding for change.
Important Note
All submissions were evaluated by multiple independent judges using a standardized scoring rubric. Each project was reviewed primarily on innovation, relevance, execution, and impact. To ensure fairness, scores were averaged across judges to eliminate bias and maintain a consistent evaluation process.
For transparency, the rubric was shared with all mentors through their login portals as soon as access was granted, enabling participants to align their efforts with the evaluation criteria from the beginning.
We will be reaching out to the winners shortly with the details regarding prizes and certificates.
