This is the platform where you can post your initial ideas and get feedback from the experts and mentors. Also, we invite you to attend the webinars that will cover topics such as the Proto.io designing tool and Vodafone Data.
Proto.io is the designing and prototyping tool that we'll use for all projects. We will also be running a webinar before the event to familiarise all participants with this tool. Don't worry if you are not technical – the designers in your team will be the ones using this most.
