How to Register

Choose the registration option that applies to you. Schools register through an appointed adviser, while individual students can pre-register their interest.

School Registration

New schools must have a teacher or adviser complete the registration form. After submission, we will verify registration and provide dedicated school accounts along with exclusive student registration links.

We'll verify and provide school accounts within 3-5 business days.

Student Registration

Individual students or student-arranged teams can pre-register their interest in Next Idea Matters. After submitting the form, you may continue individually, with your own team, or with support from a school adviser or educational organization.

Students registering independently should make sure their project team, selected track, and contact information are ready before enrollment is confirmed.

Important Information

  • Schools officially register for Next Idea Matters with an appointed school adviser.
  • Individual students and student-arranged teams can pre-register directly; adviser or organization support is welcome but not required for every project.
