Subject: Datagov.in In Pursuit of an 'Idea'
To: data...@googlegroups.com


Based on the theme of Creative collaboration on Open Government Data for Innovation, DU in collaboration of NIC is organizing a unique event-cum-platform  for students, developers and professionals from diverse fields to shape their finest and futuristic ideas into innovative projects addressing the real world issues.

The Idea collaboration will be executed in following steps:

* Pre-proposal round: Submission of “New Idea”

* Team building and collaboration with mentors for Idea Execution

* Full proposal round: Submission of Project Outline

* Presentation

* Project Execution (App, Visualization, Info-graphic, Data Sanitation)

* Final Presentation and Announcement of winners

Who can participate

*Pre proposal round - Submission of “New Idea”

This is open for all. Anyone can share his/her idea.

*Idea Execution

a)      Delhi University students: Undergraduate and postgraduate students of Delhi University will shape the “New Ideas” into apps, visualizations, info-graphics, etc selected by the jury.

b)     Mentors: Mentors from a set of diverse fields ranging from data analytics, business, social science, academics, management, data journalism, etc. would collaborate with DU students for execution of selected ideas.

More details  are available here http://data.gov.in/community/idea-collaboration

I would like to invite people from community for both  Idea Generation and Execution. I am sure, many of you would be more than happy to mentor the participants.

I an excited and hope to see more such programmes in near future which will be helpful to the end users at large and in the particular for people who are looking for programmers and ideas to work on. Feel free to write to me for any feedback on the event.

Do not hesitate to spread the word about it  among your peers who would be interested in such initiatives.

Hi,
     The idea generation phase  for the applications that would be developed this summer is open , ideas can be  submitted at http://data.gov.in/community/idea-collaboration , idea  phase will be open for two weeks , also anyone who wants to mentor students on developing apps after the idea generation phase are also welcome , they can get in touch with me for the same .

Mentors involvement i am expecting will be minimal , each mentor will be assigned an idea and 4 students to work with this summer , based on there time availability they can guide this group , more details i will share as they  evolve.

do let me know if you have any suggestions .

thanks
