GAMIC Semifinals 2020

SAE International and MI Innovation Alliance invite you to join us on February 27 for the 12th Annual Global Automotive & Mobility Innovation Challenge (GAMIC) in Southfield, MI.

After two months of competition prep advising from a cohort of nearly 40 mentors, the 23 semifinalists from 5 countries and 6 states will compete for the chance to move on to the Finals at the SAE World Congress inside Detroit’s TCF Center (Formerly Cobo Center) in April.  The Semi-finals also provides an opportunity to meet, mingle and learn about leading technology and investment perspectives for high-value automotive technologies and innovations.  Winners at the Finals will share over $300,000 in total in-kind acceleration services (including targeted exposure to decision‐makers) and cash awards.
