Students in glass houses should throw around ideas
Three teams of students, four days and three glass cubes. Experiments organised by members of the Entrepreneur Club at the federal technology institute ETH Zurich were carried out over the weekend in three locations around Zurich.
The challenges will look into how new technologies can shape future education (EdTech Challenge), generate ideas on how to continue increasing mobility (Mobility Challenge) and have an impact on the financial world with ideas on integrating digitalisation (FinTech Challenge).
All the volunteers taking part in different brain-storming projects slept and worked on these pre-selected topics around the clock in their temporary glass domiciles. One of these was situated on the ETH Polyterrasse, another at Paradeplatz and the third near the main train Station.
