Waterloo Regional Pitch Event (RPE) 2026
We are thrilled to welcome you to the Waterloo Regional Pitch Event (RPE) 2026! This exciting event celebrates everything participants have accomplished during the 4‑month 2026 Technovation Season.
The RPE also serves as the quarterfinals for the Technovation Global Challenge. The Grand Prize–winning teams in the Beginner and Junior Division will advance to the Technovation Global Semi‑Finals. The Senior Division teams will be eligible to win Waterloo Chapter awards. However, due to fewer than 8 teams competing, the official quarterfinals scoring will be done entirely online.
Friends, family, and members of the local community are warmly invited to attend and cheer on our teams! With a record‑setting number of teams participating in the Technovation Waterloo Chapter this year, this promises to be an inspiring and memorable event.
Important: Each attendee must have a ticket. Registration closes Tuesday, April 28th, 2026
