A general set of pointers:
Introduction and Problem Statement: Begin by introducing the concept and how it relates to Food Nutrition or Scarcity, highlighting the unique challenges faced. Clearly articulate the specific problem or challenge that your solution aims to address, emphasizing the need for innovative approaches to address Food Nutrition or Scarcity.
Solution Overview: Provide a comprehensive overview of your proposed application or product, outlining its key features, functionalities, and target audience. Highlight how your solution addresses a problem/challenge present in food nutrition or scarcity.
Innovation and Unique Selling Points: Showcase the innovative aspects of your solution that set it apart from existing approaches. Emphasize any unique features, technologies, or design elements that make your solution creative and compelling.
User Experience and Accessibility: Discuss how your solution ensures a seamless and user-friendly experience. Address accessibility considerations to ensure that your solution is inclusive and accessible to a diverse range of users.
Participants will have 2 weeks to come up with a solution and create a presentation that highlights the capabilities, feasibility, and potential drawbacks of their proposal. Our ideathon requires no coding whatsoever and emphasizes creativity and problem-solving abilities. If you really like your idea, feel free to switch to the hackathon and start turning it into reality at any time!
