#GeCCo 2022: 10th Anniversary, A Special Edition
GeCCo 2022: 10th Anniversary, A Special Edition.
On April 9th during a live award ceremony event, the GeCCo 2022 Core Team, put up a special moment where a virtual celebration took place with past participants and core team members from previous editions in a chat panel. A flashback memory time we all are going to remember.
For the first time ever, the 2022 Core Team gathered around 174 participants from 29 countries around the world. Also, they selected 29 teams and created a new category event called GeCCo Shark Tank, in which the 6 best teams from the competition had to submit their 24hr case in front of our panel of assessors.
This time our jury members were categorized as assessors, and we had a major participation. We had 29 assessors from around the world led by Dr. Joel B. Carboni as Head of the Assessors Committee.
