Innovate ways to improve remote collaboration
Introduction
Ideate 2020 implores students to think outside the confines of societal norms. Students are encouraged to implement technology in innovative ways to adapt to the perpetually changing environment of the world. By solving a real-world problem, students are stimulated to consider the implications of their proposed solutions. Furthermore, Ideate 2020 serves as a platform for creative experiential learning and an opportunity for students to learn to collaborate under less than ideal conditions.
Through Ideate 2020, we seek to contribute to a culture of innovation and adaptability. We hope that participants will be inspired to innovate for the benefit of humanity.
Note: Ideate 2020 is for NUS students only, please refer to the eligibility section below for detailed rules before joining.
