Brilliant Labs, which aims to foster coding and digital skills among the youth, will host its inaugural Brilliant Blue innovation competition virtually Dec. 16, with 19 teams from Nova Scotia and another 19 international groups.
The challenge invites students to design and prototype a new technology in the areas of autonomous systems or renewable energy in the marine environment, or protecting the health of marine life. Participants will then present their technology in an online demo day.
“Explore real-world pressing challenges with the inaugural Brilliant Blue competition, connect with industry professionals, discover opportunities in the blue economy, and get ready to take your innovative ideas to the next level!” says Brilliant Labs.
The deadline to register this time around has passed, but Brilliant tentatively plans to hold a similar, in-person competition next summer. You can learn more here.
