We are excited to announce the overall winners of the Pitch Presentation and the end of the Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity’s (IARPA) Credibility Assessment Standardized Evaluation (CASE) Challenge!

The Pitch Presentation, Stage 2, of The CASE Challenge was held during the Challenge Workshop on July 18, 2019 in Washington, D.C. The Workshop was a full day of presentations and panel discussions from subject matter experts across industry, academia, and government around credibility assessment. During the event, the Credibility Champions from Stage 1 pitched their Solution to a live panel of Judges and audience members.

Here are the winners of the Stage 2 of The CASE Challenge!
