What is the Challenge about?
The Future of Digital Travel Challenge is a two-day challenge where you will be exposed to speakers, mentors and experts, and required to present your solution, as a team, to a panel of judges.
Not only is there free food throughout the weekend, but you will gain a breadth of skills including teamwork, critical analysis, quick thinking, and presentation. We will arrange transport to and from UC and the Airport each day. This Challenge can also be added to your co-curricular record.
