1st year of the Logical Olympiad

The Logical Olympiad was established in 2008 as a competition in logical tasks, picking up the threads of similar competitions in Frydek-Mistek, organized by Dalibor Hrabec and the local group of Mensa Czech Republic. In 2008, the competition was only offered to fifth-grade pupils from Prague and the Central Bohemian Region. There were about 4000 participants altogether, and the finals were held on the premises of the Chamber of Deputies of the Parliament of the Czech Republic.

The Logical Olympiad is organized by Mensa Czech Republic.
