responsibility for determining, whether the winner(s) are permitted to operate or use the prizes in any
particular country. See “Prize Terms” and “Announcement; Award of Prizes” sections for additional
details.
7. Judging. After the Competition Deadline, all submissions will be screened by Autodesk, to ensure basic
compliance with the entry requirements. Sponsor will establish a panel of three (3) individuals (the
“Judges”) with experience in product design, product development, industrial design and engineering.
One Judge will be named by Sponsor as the Presiding Judge for each of the Categories. In the event of a
tie, the Presiding Judge’s score shall determine the winner. If a tie remains at that point, the entry that
received the highest score in the Criteria of “Software Skills” shall determine the winner. The Judges will
include the following:
 Ian Green, Nissan Motor Manufacturing

Ben Eaton, Mercedes AMG Petronas

Andrew Denford, F1 in Schools
8. Criteria. Judges will select the winners based on the following criteria (“Criteria”), each of which will
be given specific weight as indicated by the percentages below:
 Innovation and Inventiveness (30%): The design “pushes the envelope” and enhances user
experience
 Software Skills (30%): Degree of technical skill demonstrated and quality of design submitted
based on technical requirements
 Suitability to Purpose (20%): Degree to which the design is useful and suited to serving its
purpose well, providing a positive user experience
 Creativity (20%): Degree to which the entry reflects cleverness and originality of thought to
support the challenge which adds value
9. Selection of Winners: Entrants in the 18-24 Year Old Category will only be judged against entries in
that Category and entries in the 13-17 Year Old Category will only be judged against entries in that
Category. The full panel of Judges will apply the Criteria to evaluate the winners in each Category. The
entries with the three highest aggregate scores in each Category will be selected as the Judges Award
Winners and the entry with the next highest scores will receive the next tier of prize in each Category and
so on until all ten prizes have been awarded in accordance with the Prizes section above.
The winner(s) will be notified via email within two weeks of selection of the winner(s). Each winner will
be awarded only the prize(s) for which that winner was selected, as described above. Following
confirmation of winner(s) eligibility and signing of the winners’ declarations, Sponsor will announce
prize winners on or around February 27, 2017.
10. Substitute Judges and Disqualification:
The Judges have the right to disqualify any entry that is not in compliance with these Rules. In the event
that a winning entry is disqualified, the next-highest scoring entry will be selected as the alternate winner.
In the event that one or more of the identified Judges are unavailable, Sponsor reserves the right to
substitute Judges of comparable qualification, to be determined by Sponsor in its discretion.
THE NUMBER OF “LIKES” OR VOTES EACH ENTRY RECEIVES ON THE SPONSOR SITE IS
NOT ONE OF THE CRITERIA USED BY JUDGES TO SELECT THE WINNER(S). THE DECISIONS
OF SPONSOR AND THE JUDGES WILL BE FINAL. SPONSOR WILL NOT CORRESPOND WITH
ENTRANTS ABOUT THE DECISIONS OF THE JUDGES OR THE DETERMINATION OF THE
WINNERS OTHER THAN AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THE RULES. The Competition is entirely
skill-based and contains no Criteria based on chance. The standards applied during the judging process
focuses on assessing each entry’s properties. By the mere submission of an entry, an entrant acquires no
automatic right to be awarded a prize.
11. Size of Entry Pool.
Winning entries will be selected by the Judges in accordance with the Criteria as described in these Rules.
The chances of any entry winning a prize depends on the number of eligible entries received between the
Start Date and the Deadline and the quality of that entry as compared to the other eligible entries, as
evaluated by the Judges in the manner described above. Sponsor does not know in advance the number of
eligible entries that will be received.
