The Diamond Challenge is a global high school entrepreneurship competition with a prize pool of more than $100,000. Teams of two to four students develop and pitch an original business or social venture concept; in each of the two tracks (business innovation and social innovation), first place wins $12,000, second place $8,000, and third place $4,500, awarded to advance the venture or support higher education.
