It aims to explore new models and dynamics in future spaces and environments, future mobility and lifestyles, future products and services, future health and well-being, future cultural tourism and creativity, and future art and fashion. The program seeks to develop innovative solutions by integrating cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence, aerospace, the internet, mobile technology, wearable devices, open-source hardware, and software.
This event invites young students from around the world to form teams and submit creative proposals for evaluation by expert judges. Selected teams will be invited to China to participate in a two-week summer workshop, where they will turn their proposals into real product prototypes. During the workshop, students will work in teams under the guidance of Tsinghua University and international mentors to refine their visions and create tangible prototypes. Additionally, experts in technology, market, and entrepreneurship will provide skill training and specialized lectures to help teams continuously iterate and improve their projects.
