The judging criteria are still being developed.

However, every team submission must be documented on the iGEM Wiki, including but not limited to a public executive summary, elevator pitch (max 3 min) video, and public presentation (Slides). Wiki: You have the freedom to be creative, but generally follow the collegiate iGEM Wiki requirements.

  • Business Plan Wiki: Successful business plan submissions probably include sections that show:
    • The problem or opportunity being addressed.
    • Details of the solution being proposed.
    • The competitive landscape.
    • Skillsets of the founding team and early employees and collaborators required.
    • Information about the team.
    • The team's competitive advantage.
    • Proposed milestones.
    • Business model.
    • Funding requirements tied to milestones.
    • Potential Risks.
    • Actions suggested to mitigate risks.
    • Attribution of work to team members, advisors, and others.
    • If seeking investment, exit scenarios and appropropriately discounted yield calculations.


  • Other Track Wikis (*Economic and Business Models, *Industry Development, and *Business and Regulation) will probably at least include sections that show:</li>
    • The problem or opportunity being addressed.
    • Details of the solution being proposed.
    • Comparison of alternative solutions.
    • Stakeholder maps and actions required to reach them.
    • Proposed milestones.
    • Potential Risks.
    • Actions suggested to mitigate risks.
    • Attribution of work to team members, advisors, and others.
