We won TWO California CARES Climate Grants!

·1 min

We’re excited to share that two student groups from the 2024 EFC Seminar won California CARES Grants from UC San Diego Office of Innovation and Comercialization:

  • A team of students from the EFC Seminar won $50,000 to support the building of five Data Terraria. These units will be used for remote monitoring and edge AI processing for wildfire detection.

  • The EFC 574 Project won $50,000 to build the first two EFC Sovereign AI Sister Nodes to support Indigenous Sovereign AI.

We are immensely proud of our students - they put in a ton of work and made great pitches. We thank the OIC and judges for their time, feedback, and support.
