  <title><![CDATA[Two Georgia Tech-Lorraine Innovation Projects Take Prizes in the 7th Annual MC6 Trophy Competition ]]></title>
  <body><![CDATA[<p>MC6 is an annual student innovation competition where 6 finalists are connected with 6 industry mentors and then given 6 minutes to convince the judges that their project is the best. Georgia Tech-Lorraine has always made a strong showing, with one or more projects in the finals. For the 7<sup>th</sup> annual competition the finals took place on March 6, 2019, in the Metz Technopole, with two Georgia Tech-Lorraine projects as finalists. &ndash; <a href="https://etrophee.tropheemc6.fr/?contest=video-detail&amp;video_id=86" target="_blank">Soufiane Karrakchou, with his MicroLED project</a>, and <a href="https://etrophee.tropheemc6.fr/?contest=video-detail&amp;video_id=83" target="_blank">Antoine Richard with NeuraLeaf</a>. Thanks to an overwhelming amount of support from the Georgia Tech community worldwide, Soufiane Karrakchou won the inaugural E-trophy and also came in third in the MC6 Trophy competition. Antoine Richard was awarded second place for the MC6 Trophy. <em>F&eacute;licitations</em> (congratulations) to both Antoine and Soufiane!&nbsp;</p>

  <!--  Disquisition: it's funny how I write these TODOs and then never
         revisit them. It's as though the act of writing the thing down frees me

         say? There are more problems than there's time to solve.  -->
