One-line solution summary:

Offer multicultural professionals daily access to competence leverage to ease collaborative innovation and team-building

Pitch your solution.

Innovative ideas can come from anyone, though not everyone is sufficiently encouraged to express their ideas and to team up to develop their ideas into solutions.

We propose a daily accessible solution that gives multicultural professionals equal chance to competence leverage for collaborative innovation and social inclusion in our life style.

It helps everyone to live up to their full potential by leveraging their competences to each other, enhancing their opportunities to work on their passion with mutual support, and to live a life with high level of self-realization and fulfillment.

What specific problem are you solving?

Many multicultural professionals with competences and innovative minds could not live up to their full potential, because they do not have opportunities to express their ideas and have no access to support due to barriers of language, culture and social connection.

What is your solution?

Through mini-events, online and offline, we give everyone equal chance in our daily life to easily leverage our competences to each other and to collaborate on projects.

Who does your solution serve, and in what ways will the solution impact their lives?

Multicultural professionals who want to achieve better fulfillment at work and better social inclusion in life.

Which dimension of the Challenge does your solution most closely address?

Equip everyone, regardless of age, gender, education, location, or ability, with culturally relevant digital literacy skills to enable participation in the digital economy.

Explain how the problem you are addressing, the solution you have designed, and the population you are serving align with the Challenge.

Though all people have competences and innovative ideas, not everyone have equal chance to turn their competences and creativity into fulfillment in life and at work. This is not only a loss for the individuals but also impacts the competitiveness of the industries and of the country eventually.
