MEET THE TEAMS & TECHS! GET THE CHALLENGE. START THE CLOCK!

Season 4 Episode 401 | 27m 16s | CC

We meet our 10 teams with detailed backstories. The teams learn the challenge and the rules, the whistle blows, and the 48-hour countdown begins. We dive into the creative process and the business of inventing a product. Throughout the competition, we cut away to supporting educational back stories about team members, mentors, and tool techs that support our cast of characters.
