The Grand Jam jury assumes responsibility for the final decision under the Mars Challenge 2026 official rules.
Its work rests on careful listening, shared criteria and a deliberation that must be explainable.
Deciding responsibly
The jury does not assess only a presentation. It considers the elements defined for the edition: the solution, process, ability to communicate, evidence provided and applicable criteria.
The final decision follows the official procedure and remains independent of particular interests.
Recognising a project means first understanding the journey that made it possible.
Different roles
- Mentors support without replacing the team’s voice.
- Evaluators analyse and record assessments.
- The jury deliberates and takes the final decision under official rules.
