The winners of the National Innovation Challenge (NIC) have enjoyed another incredible couple of days in the US.

During their trip so far, students Shlok, Faithon, Timothy, Ollie and Wojtek have found out more about how to turn their innovative ideas into projects with real-world impact, as well as sightseeing at some of the most famous locations in the world.

This included:

  • A tour of New York with visits to Times Square, Rockefeller Centre and the Statue of Liberty
  • Visiting Amazon’s offices in Washington DC
  • Presenting their winning NIC projects to the Amazon panel, gaining valuable feedback and insights to take their innovations to the next level.

Huge thanks to Amazon, Didactic Services Ltd and One Care iT Limited, whose sponsorship of the NIC allowed these visits to take place.
