With over 2,100 Innovators participating in the GoFly Prize from 86 countries across 6 continents, GoFly is catalyzing innovation across the globe!
Our innovators include some of the best and brightest designers, builders, and thinkers from young engineers at top universities to veteran aerospace experts … and this excitement has been a constant reminder that, together, we will Make People Fly.
GoFly judges, and the world at large, can’t wait to see the first round of submissions this spring. As a reminder, the final submission deadline for Phase I is April 18th at 5:00 pm ET.
Creating anything big and bold is hard, but creating revolutionary new technology is extremely hard, which is why GoFly empowers our Teams by providing access to incredibly valuable software, products, services, and experts. Today, GoFly is proud to announce the beginning of our roster of in-kind sponsors. All Teams who participate in the competition and who continue to remain active competitors will have access to:
