Are there any awards that send you to the Championships?
I think I remember a team that was awarded an innovation award and because of that they were able to go to championships. Is this an actual thing?

The FFIA winner will be announced at the FIRST Championship award ceremony. The winning inventor(s) will be granted an award sponsored by the Abbott Fund and also will have the opportunity to meet personally with Dean Kamen. FIRST will provide transportation and hotel cost for one inventor and a chaperone to attend Championship (if the team and/or inventor is not already attending the Championship), and meet with Dean.
