The Gold, Silver, and Bronze awards were presented along with 17 Honorable Mentions. 

A doctoral team from Tsinghua University, led by Luorang Danzhen, won the Gold Award.

Their concept redefines human ingenuity while demonstrating the perfect fusion of sports and culture, technology and humanities. Team Yu I received the Silver Award for "Boundless Sports, Countless Wonders”. Using civilizational dialogue as their stage, the contemporary spirit as their thread, and future vision as their destination, they crafted an inspiring journey from "the Radiance of Ancient Kingdom of Shu” to "World · Future”. The Bronze Award went to Liao Yujing for "Painted Scrolls and Brocade: Connecting Through Art”, which highlights Chengdu's historical beauty and innovative brilliance.
