FAQ

How is the team score calculated?

The purpose of the leaderboard is to be a fun way to showcase teams that are being innovative and interesting. We continue to refine the algorithm behind the score to most accurately deliver on that purpose. Currently the score & ranking is determined by each team member’s achievements, peer endorsements, speaking history, and then adjusted to the team’s central tendency. Team scores are recalculated twice weekly. In the future we plan to provide more transparency around the score and when it changes.

How often is the team score calculated?
