Cleantech Innovation + Market Opportunity = Solutions for the Planet
The University of Washington has a challenge for you. If you have a
passion for clean technology, the smarts to play in the emerging “green
economy,” and desire to make an impact, the UW Environmental Innovation
Challenge is your opportunity... and chance to win $10,000. The UW Environmental Innovation Challenge is on April 4, 2013.In the UW EIC, interdisciplinary student teams define an environmental problem, design and develop the solution, and produce both a prototype (proof of concept/computer simulation) and business summary that demonstrates the market opportunity. Teams are judged - by Seattle-area industry cleantech experts, entrepreneurs, and cleantech investors - on their prototypes(or computor simulations), pitches and business summaries, plus the potential impact of their innovation. Can your idea reduce environmental impacts, improve ecological sustainability, conserve resources and compete in the marketplace? Prove it.
Innovations in Clean Technology – Fall Practicum
Unique interdisciplinary course focuses on innovative cleantech solutions to our most pressing environmental challenges and turning those innovations into exciting businesses to bring them to market. Topics include alternative and renewable energy and energy efficiencies, green building, and transportation.
The Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship produces the UW Environmental Innovation Challenge in partnership with the College of Engineering and the College of the Environment.

Primary Care: Medical Technology
We
want to call your attention to the upcoming fifth annual
round of this exciting award competition for engineering
students, nation-wide. This generous Prize, sponsored
by a private donor and administered by the MGH and
CIMIT, is designed to reward technology innovations
directed at clinically important needs in Primary
Healthcare. The top three student teams will receive
$150,000, $100,000 and $50,000, respectively!
We
would greatly appreciate your help in promulgating news
of this opportunity to your engineering department
chairs, as this may be of intense interest to graduate
or undergraduate students in any engineering department
or bioengineering program.
Details
of the award can be at
www.primarycareprize.org.
A Prize flyer is available at
http://cimit.org/images/
The
first step for an entrant is the generation of a
two-page preliminary description by January 21th,
2013. From those, ten Finalists will be chosen, and
each of those will receive $10,000 to use in
their work toward the full final entry due in June. The
three major winners will then be chosen and the funds
disbursed to their institutions for stewardship.
The
entry criteria for this major prize will simply require
the students to obtain an "Institutional Letter of
Support" from a Department Head, business official or
Dean. We wanted to alert you to that administrative
requirement, and assure you that all that is required is
verification on letterhead that the student entrant is
indeed a student in good standing and that if he/she
wins, that the school will accept the money on behalf of
support of the student's work on the project going
forward. We simply need stewardship of the student’s
winnings as a gift to the school for the expenses of
supporting the project. The winning student(s) may then
draw on the funds for any project-relevant purpose.
Thank
you for your attention and help in distributing this
announcement to bioengineering Faculty for their
students’ use.
Yours
truly,
Ronald
