Description
Big Ideas in Taiwan located at the Munk School of Global Affairs aims to inspire students to develop social entrepreneurial, innovative projects that apply their academic knowledge to a real world challenge in Taiwan, to solve a problem, or make a difference. Students will learn through a series of expert-led workshop videos on how to generate ideas, write a successful proposal, the art of the pitch, and idea execution through effective project management. In April, individuals and teams will pitch their ideas before a jury of faculty members and industry experts, competing for project awards.
Big Ideas in Taiwan is based on the Richard Charles Lee Big Ideas Competition (2015-16) created by Professor Joseph Wong. This initiative is made possible with funding from the Taiwan Department of Education and the Taipei Economic and Trade Office in Toronto, with support from the Munk School of Global Affairs.
ELIGIBILITY: Graduate and undergraduate students in the Munk School of Global Affairs and members of student group, Taiwan Now
AWARDS: $10,000 total
