IIRC from another thread, don't many of these teams that win EI get grants from more local sources?

And to add to the question, what would happen if an American team won EI at an international event?
I think FIRST could try going to, atleast for Canada, their space agency and seeing if they would be willing to match the same sponsorship that NASA does for US teams.

And I think if an American team won an EI in an International event NASA would still pay.
