It is with excitement and sadness that we post the featured entries for the 4th and final week of the Power BI DataViz World Championships, qualifying rounds. We can't say enough about the quality of the entries - they've improved week over week, which is saying a lot because week 1 was incredible!

We had over 100 entries again this week, and all entries in the top 13 (including the winner) scored an 80% or above! We also had 8 entries this week that had a perfect score for accessibility, and another 12 that were nearly perfect.

And now, for our favorites!

I gave my best in this competition, and while my submission didn't make it to the top spots, I truly believed in its quality. Sometimes, results don't align with expectations, but I’m grateful for the experience. Maybe there's still a chance to be the fans' favorite—let’s see how the likes go!
