Regional Winners of Otis’ Made to Move Communities Announced

Otis announced the four student teams that are the regional winners of its fifth year of the Made to Move Communities™ student challenge, each earning their school a US$20,000 grant. The annual STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) competition consisted of more than 250 students from 28 schools who, with the guidance of Otis volunteer mentors, designed and proposed innovative ways for AI to improve inclusive urban mobility in their communities. The students presented their ideas to Otis judges in each of the company’s four regions: Americas, Asia Pacific, China and EMEA (Europe, Middle East & Africa), and, for the first time, four regional winning teams were picked to compete in a final round. Student teams will present their solutions to local challenges and how they can be scaled globally to a panel of Otis senior executives to determine the global winner, whose school will receive a total of US$35,000 in STEM grants. The global winner will be announced in early May.
