Richard Charles Lee Big Ideas Competition
A video of the orientation will be made available for those who cannot attend at munkschool.utoronto.ca/ai/bigideas.
Do you have an idea for a creative, social entrepreneurial, innovative project that takes what you know about contemporary Asia to another level, to solve a problem, spread an idea, or make a difference? We want to hear from you!
THE BIG IDEAS COMPETITION
We’re looking for bright, motivated students with ideas for impactful projects with a focus on Asia. Sound vague? That’s because the only limit is your imagination. This is a chance to think outside the box, to apply your classroom learning to the real world in a meaningful way. Students will train to win through a series of expert-led workshops between now and April, covering how to come up with a winning idea, writing a successful proposal, the art of the pitch, and idea execution through project management. In April, individuals and teams will pitch their ideas before a jury of faculty members and industry experts, competing for the prize to fund their projects.
ELIGIBILITY
Undergraduate and graduate students in the Faculty of Arts and Science
