Supported by Mapletree, the expanded hackathon allowed the participants to be equipped with new, marketable, and future-ready career skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This hackathon gave students the opportunity to experience Design Thinking and workshops on pitching and visual storytelling to address social issues reflected in the challenge statements. An introduction to cloud computing exposed them to digitalisation and making use of tools to enhance their work. Students also went through stakeholder engagement sessions to understand their viewpoints, thus, developing empathy and understanding of the underlying business challenges on a deeper level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The top five teams (Enspeech from Raffles Institution, Sight Revive from Ngee Ann Polytechnic, BPack from Anglo-Chinese School (Independent), MindHaven from Ngee Ann Polytechnic, and Ikalgo from Temasek Polytechnic) impressed the judging panel in their five-minute pitches. Winning teams were awarded cash prizes of $3,000 (First Prize), $2,000 (Second Prize), $1,000 (Third Prize) and $500 (Fourth and Fifth Prizes), respectively. More information on the Challenge Statements and winning teams can be found in Additional Notes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mr Edmund Cheng, Chairman of Mapletree, shared, \u201cWe are proud to support the second edition of the Mapletree x NP Hack, as part of Mapletree\u2019s efforts to bring engaging and meaningful programmes that will value-add to students\u2019 educational journeys. We are heartened by the students\u2019 increased participation in this hackathon, reflecting the committed desire of our youth today to share their bold, entrepreneurial ideas to address challenges faced by different segments of society.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIn NP, we recognise the value of driving a strong culture of innovation. Over the years, we have spearheaded numerous initiatives including hackathons, where students acquire key skills and innovate by practising them on real-life challenges. After a successful inaugural run in 2021, the Mapletree x NP Hack 2023 was extended to students from all Institutes of Higher Learning. The strong support from participating institutes is a testament to the confidence in the programme\u2019s ability to sharpen students\u2019 analytical and problem-solving skills. Furthermore, by focussing on pressing social issues that Singapore faces today, this year\u2019s event aims to prepare students to become competent and empathetic leaders of tomorrow,\u201d said Mr Patrice Choong, Ngee Ann Polytechnic\u2019s Senior Director for Technology, Innovation &amp; Entrepreneurship.<br><br>First launched in 2021, the hackathon aims to provide students with new, marketable, and future-ready career skills. Open to students across different IHLs this year, the three-day hackathon took place from 22 to 24 March 2023 in a hybrid model of face-to-face and online workshops. In teams of three to five, students created solutions to one of the four challenge statements and submitted their deliverables for the semi-finals, which were evaluated by a judging panel.<br><br>Eight finalist teams were selected to pitch at the finale on 5 April 2023. The proposed solutions were evaluated based on the relevance to the target audience\u2019s needs, business case as well as creativity and persuasiveness demonstrated by the teams\u2019 presentation skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The event was organised by students from The Sandbox Advocates at NP. Facilitators for the Design Thinking workshops included 25 staff and students from NP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-decoration:underline\">Photos<br><strong>Available for download here<\/strong>:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3KSGFyo\">https:\/\/bit.ly\/3KSGFyo<\/a>&nbsp; &nbsp;<br><strong>Photo Credits: Mapletree Investments<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-decoration:underline\"><strong>Winning Teams<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>First Prize<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"450\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mapletree.com.sg\/tachyon\/2024\/12\/20230405_MapletreexNPHack2023_0537.jpg\" alt=\"Clothing, Footwear, Shoe\" class=\"wp-image-636\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mapletree.com.sg\/tachyon\/sites\/17\/2024\/12\/20230405_MapletreexNPHack2023_0537.jpg?resize=450%2C300&amp;zoom=1 450w, https:\/\/www.mapletree.com.sg\/tachyon\/sites\/17\/2024\/12\/20230405_MapletreexNPHack2023_0537.jpg?resize=450%2C300&amp;zoom=0.5 225w, https:\/\/www.mapletree.com.sg\/tachyon\/sites\/17\/2024\/12\/20230405_MapletreexNPHack2023_0537.jpg?resize=450%2C300&amp;zoom=0.25 113w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\" style=\"font-size:12px\"><em><strong>Enspeech<\/strong>\u00a0(L-R): Kobayashi Tao, Putra Zayan Bin Mohd Jaffry; Amith Burla; Ms Joanna Lee; Mr Fred Then; Mr Jerrick Tee<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Theme: Persons with Disabilities (PwDs)<br>How might we create a truly inclusive Singapore for persons with disabilities so that they live enriching and meaningful lives?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Realising that the hearing-impaired face challenges when it comes to employment, inclusion as well as education, a team of Year 2 students from&nbsp;<strong>Raffles Institution<\/strong>&nbsp;explored a solution which harnesses Text-To-Speech formation.
