2018 Grand Prix - Rules, Qualification, and Timeline

[LeahK]

We're excited to announce that the Grand Prix is returning to its traditional format at Inspire 2018. Read the announcement.

We will once again have three final contestants racing to solve a series of data challenges faster than their competitors. The goal of the evening: to prove which contestant is the master of the workflow.

If you're eager to flex your Alteryx muscle in front of a roaring crowd, make sure to throw your hat in the ring for the 2018 Alteryx Grand Prix!

Grand Prix 2018 Rules:

• You must be an Alteryx User Group member to participate
• Any number of people from the same User Group can race in the prelims, but only 1 person per user group will be allowed to advance to finals as a racer

• If a racer makes the Final 3 in the US, they cannot compete at Inspire Europe in 2018
