IoT Community Champions - Q2 2024
Q2 of 2024 just ended and it’s time to announce the IoT Community Champions!
As you might know, beginning of 2024 I re-launched the IoT Community Awards with more focus on gamification and getting points by solving different kind of challenges which was quite fun! Also we changed the prizes to motivate those who already received the same before.
Let’s find out who made it to the top leaderboard in Q2 2024 and can call himself a IoT Community Champion!

Congratulations to all the IoT Community Champions of Q2 2024! 
As a summary you can see that most of them received there points very heterogeneously by solving different challenges. While some of them focused on community work like Harald & Tristan, other mainly invested in open-source contribution or attending events like the IUG Hackathon or an IoT Tech Talk.

Due to the facts that no-one or only 1-2 members reached some of the challenges, I lowered the criteria for the received and given likes to 15. Also I increased the amount of points you get for the provided solutions from 300 to 500 points to honor those who invested time in solving other issues here in the community.
Unfortunately only some of the hidden and special challenges were claimed. So keep your eyes open and lookout for challenges in videos, knowledge base articles and other content.
