Now in its fifteenth year, Pennvention prides itself on being the sole Penn entrepreneurship competition with a primary focus on technological innovation. Over the course of the competition, entrants pitch an idea, develop a product, receive help from mentors and enter to win over $20,000 in prizes.
This year’s winner was Headway, a wearable device for improving communication in minimally invasive surgeries. The winning team members are Integrated Product Design (IPD) graduate students Julia Lin, Jonah Arnheim, Qian Wan and Laura Ceccacci.
