Golnaz catches up with Clint Rutkas to discuss culture day, learning sessions and interviews with teams from Angola, Qatar and a few MSPs right before everyone gets ready to head over to the Award Ceremony at the Alexandrinsky Theater for Imagine Cup 2013!
Press Showcase at Imagine Cup Finals
Its the 2nd Day of the Imagine Cup World Wide Finals here in St. Petersburg, Russia and Golnaz and John sit down to discuss what has happened so far. Golnaz also takes you on a tour of the press showcase room with a few interviews from teams.
Great Talks
Design, Research and Ways of Seeing the Future
Bill Buxton and Clint Rutkas team up to give a talk on innovation. Bill Buxtons states, "Sometimes I think more people write books about it than actually do it. But talk is cheap. Effective action isnt. But anyone who has reached the Imagine Cup Finals knows that. So you have a head-start. What I hope to do in this session is give you a leg up - to share with you what I think that I have learned over the past 35 years that may help you going forward. If there is a single key message in what I have to say, it is that scholarship, classic research, and history are as important to study, as is "invention", in terms of being an effective innovator. That and a love of what you are doing."
