This time, we are gearing up to “Blaze the Path to New Realities……”
Innovation is the only way to win!
It’s time to think out-of-the box, push your creative boundaries and innovate now. We truly believe that your innovation can redefine paths, re-shift paradigms and make change happen for a better tomorrow. This monumental moment of innovation can impact businesses and lives forever and unleash limitless possibilities for everyone.
The 2021 Accenture Innovation Challenge springboards from the theme “Combining Technology with Human Ingenuity for a better world”. It aims at bringing together the essence of human ingenuity and the power of technology, both of which culminate into that one moment and its unlimited outcomes.
As an offshoot of this theme, we are encouraging participants to submit their ideas for the following two Innovation categories:
Innovate for business
Develop innovative business solutions, offering or a business model that disrupts the market.
Innovate for society
Develop innovative solutions by applying technology to help improve the way we work and live and create value for our society.
