It is one of the largest international competitions with a long history in the United States, aiming at testing the creativity and solidarity of young people. It is an all-round exhibition stage after the perfect combination of scientific innovation and artistic creativity, and is regarded as an important way to train future Americans.

When solving problems, students can apply their hobbies and knowledge and skills to problem-solving practice. They solve problems and study happily, thus benefiting for life.
The World Brain Olympics Association provides 6 long questions and at least 30 impromptu questions every year. Long questions are divided into six categories, namely, vehicles, engineering, classicism, structure, performance and elementary questions, and the content of the questions is different every year. There are three kinds of impromptu questions: language, hands-on and mixed language. These themes are full of fun and challenges, providing students with opportunities to fully display their talents.
The China Brain Olympics Final (also known as the Brain Olympics Innovation Competition) is held in Shanghai at the end of February or early March every year. Last September, the long-term theme of the Thinking Olympics Innovation Competition was announced, so each team had about five months to prepare for the competition.
In addition to the long questions, each team also has to compete in impromptu questions, and the sum of the two results is the total score of each team. Each team has an adult coach to guide the players, but he can't help them solve their problems. Every May, the team that has achieved excellent results in the innovation competition will go to the United States to participate in the world finals of the Thinking Olympics.
The challenge of the 10,000-person conference is combined with the activities of the Science and Technology Festival, which is held in primary and secondary schools and kindergartens in Shanghai from April to June every year. The contest is divided into three parts: preliminary, semi-final and final. The topic of the challenge of the ten thousand people's congress is very simple, easy to operate and full of fun. Competition topics such as "curve flying", "the higher the better" and "rabbit and new home" have been welcomed by the majority of primary and secondary school students and kindergarten students.
