Official announcements about InterSystems contests for developers. 

Hi Community,

We're super excited and thankful to our 52 InterSystems colleagues who participated in the 📺 Demo Games for InterSystems Sales Engineers 📺 and created 19 amazing videos.

Our colleagues worldwide put their creativity, technical know-how, and demo magic to the test. What started as an internal contest to showcase technical skill and demo excellence became a true stage for imagination with some entries looking less like demos and more like short films, complete with acting, storytelling, and even a cinematic touch.

Also, we'd like to thank all the members of the Community who took the time to watch them and vote for their favourites!

And now it's time to announce the winners!
