Competition
DigiKey appeals to the Innovators of tomorrow
DigiKey invites students to take part in its annual back-to-school competition to win products and giveaways. The aim: to encourage curiosity and creativity and reward bold ideas.
Five participants will be randomly selected to win a prize package including products such as an LED lamp from Aven Tools, an all-in-one digital tool from Pokit Innovations, a wire stripper from Weidmüller, an electronics toolkit from Adafruit Ladyada, DigiKey giveaways and more. In addition, one winner will receive the grand prize, a power supply from Teledyne LeCroy.
"Each year, we use our Back-to-School Sweepstakes to celebrate the curiosity, creativity and promising futures of the participants," said Brooks Vigen, Senior Director of Global Strategic Marketing at DigiKey. "DigiKey is proud to help students turn bold ideas into real-world innovations, and we're excited to see how this generation will shape the technologies of tomorrow."
All students with a university or college email address can take part in the back-to-school competition - also in the national language. Participation via the DigiKey website until October 24, 2025; winners will be announced on November 15, 2025. Information on free educational offers and resources is also available on the DigiKey website.
