I have just learned about a new competition, that is organized by Google. Project 10100 (pronounced “Project 10 to the 100th”) is a call for ideas to change the world by helping as many people as possible. Joining is extremely easy. You just have to fill a simple form that describes your idea in around 300 words and add your personal info.
After the deadline, which is the 20th of October, the submission will close. On January 27, a public voting will open and in the end, the idea with the highest number of votes will have a $10 million funding! Below are the very basic rules / criteria for building up the idea.
- Reach: How many people would this idea affect?
- Depth: How deeply are people impacted? How urgent is the need?
- Attainability: Can this idea be implemented within a year or two?
- Efficiency: How simple and cost-effective is your idea?
- Longevity: How long will the idea’s impact last?
Joining the competition is extremely easy and you can join with more than one ideas. Check out the official site here, read the FAQ or simply watch the Youtube video below.
