Kansas City National Security Campus sponsors three awards at the Kansas City Invention Convention

The Kansas City National Security Campus, managed by Honeywell FM&T, was the title sponsor for this year’s Kansas City Invention Convention hosted by the Linda Hall Library. More than 220 students competed from 12 area schools. Seven of those students qualified for the U.S. National Invention Convention.

On competition day, students presented their projects at tables with a display that included information on their scientific process. The winners were awarded at a ceremony on April 17, where students, their families and educators gathered at the Linda Hall Library for the awards ceremony. You can find all the award winners at the KCIC website.

The KCNSC presented three special awards that included prize money. These awards were the Future Shaper award, the Most Patentable award, and the Early Innovator award. This year’s KCNSC award winners were:
