Microsoft Image Cup 2025 Minimum Viable Product (MVP)

Exciting News: Judging the Microsoft Imagine Cup 2025 MVP Competition!

I am thrilled to announce that I have been selected as one of the judges for the Microsoft Imagine Cup 2025 Minimum Viable Product (MVP) competition! This prestigious event is a global technology startup competition for student founders using the Microsoft Cloud. It offers an incredible platform for young innovators to showcase their groundbreaking ideas and accelerate their startups.

The Imagine Cup is structured into several rounds, starting with the Idea Round, where participants submit their concepts using the Lean Canvas framework. Following this, the MVP Submission phase requires teams to develop a functional version of their idea, ready to demo to judges. Successful teams then advance to the Semifinals, gaining access to mentorship, global recognition, and expert guidance within Microsoft for Startups Founders Hub. The competition culminates in the World Championship, where the best startups pitch their solutions on a global stage.

Participants benefit from networking opportunities, expert coaching, and access to industry-leading AI services through Azure AI Studio. This year’s competition promises to be an inspiring journey of innovation and creativity, and I am honored to be part of it.
