The Inform Prize aims to encourage students to think about how they might communicate their ideas and research findings to local employers, and promote interaction between industry and academia.
Students are initially tasked with creating a digital solution to a real life problem. Their ideas will be presented in video format to a panel of judges, where they'll give a demonstration of their product in action, they'll also take part in a question and answer session before the judges go on to decide who the winners are across three prizes:
Inform Prize - Best Presentation
Grow Prize - Best Idea
Enhance Prize - Best Implementation
The Inform Prize has been an annual event in Aberdeen run by Intelligent Plant since 2014, this will be the first time run for Glasgow University students by VeryConnect.
