The world around us is changing and it is full of opportunities. On the other hand, there are also many problems to be solved.
Have you ever wondered why climate change is not being tackled effectively enough? Do you want to find everyday ways to curb people’s consumption habits or to come up with new innovations to build a better world? The UN has identified 17 sustainable development goals that both developing and developed countries should address by 2030. The list includes improving gender equality, combating poverty, responsible consumption and production, decelerating climate change, providing quality education and ensuring clean water.
In this challenge, the team generates a startup idea related to solving a problem that is shaking the world. The team itself chooses which challenge they want to solve. After the Sprint Innovation Festival week, it is possible for the team to get help to develop the idea further if they want to!
This challenge is supported by Platform 6 and Red Brick.

How to collect information about public gatherings (cultural events, demonstrations, sport events) and predict movement of different groups with the aid of open source intelligence (OSINT) in order to secure the safety of the gathering? What can OSINT data (phone data, social media content, etc.) tell us? How to collect, analyze, and synthetize this sort of data? What would be the limitations of this kind of approach?
We hope for roadmaps and concrete examples of different kind of scenarios on where and how to utilize your suggestions.
