Agreed to an extent. The trophies can still be showcased and accompany the team to demos and outreach - but it is also up to each team to work on strengthening those partnerships. Reputation goes a long way as well. Teams who have earned the awards strengthen their reputation with them and teams who have yet to accrue a lot of hardware, can still work to build their reputation in the community and in their partnerships with sponsors and schools.
