Get ready for the final Blox-Off, crucial in determining this season’s winners. There are a few ways for the Bloxers to take home a piece of the winning pie. Based on the scores from throughout the week, three contestants will tie for runner-up, and three will tie for the ultimate score of first place. You’ll also see 4 companies win the coveted titles of “Most Investable Company” (x2) and “Most Valuable Company” (x2).
The “Most Investable” honor is reserved for the company deemed most likely to attract investments and yield substantial returns, capturing the imagination of venture capitalists. Conversely, the “Most Valuable” distinction is reserved for the companies who would fetch the highest acquisition price if they were all sold today. This category has to take into account traction, assets, IP and more.
After that, we bid adieu to another season of learning, growing, and reaching our full entrepreneurial potential together. We’ll see you in Season 7!
The episode opens at the start of the final Blox-Off. The pod winners are tasked with simply presenting the same material that they had in the day’s challenge, but this time, they are also grilled with questions for three minutes after. After the final Blox-Off rankings are announced, the tears begin to flow as contestants reflect on their inspiring time and their life-altering experiences at The Blox.
Anticipation fills the air as the individual awards are ready to be unveiled. While the winners remain a tantalizing secret for now, rest assured that you may need some tissues by the end of the episode. This journey undertaken by each contestant has been nothing short of extraordinary, and it certainly was not for the faint of heart. The Blox is made only for those with true grit, and every participant deserves a resounding round of applause for their dedication and perseverance throughout the week.
Stay tuned for the next season, where new dreams will be born, and new champions will rise to the occasion!

GW Chew, aka Chef Chew, is the Founder & CEO of Something Better Foods Inc. and has been a vegan food inventor/restaurateur for over 15 years. Adopted at birth into a family with the last name “Chew,” Chef Chew believes that he was born with a mission and purpose to change lives for the better, one chew at a time. Chef Chew grew up in the “country” amongst a family of very heavy meat eaters and noticed over time that a lot of different diseases, from diabetes to cancer, plagued the members of his family. He later discovered that many of those same diseases have been linked to poor diet and overconsumption of animal meat products. Inspired to begin living a healthy lifestyle, Chef Chew switched to a plant-based diet in 2001 and started experimenting with creating vegan food products in 2004. He painstakingly invented the Better Chew proteins in his mom’s kitchen and has perfected the textures and taste over the past 15 years.
