The five teams from across the two academy’s that took part in the Enzen Global Sustainability Challenge showed they can. During a Dragon’s Den style pitch in the final of the competition held at the University of Warwick’s NAIC building, on Thursday 1st May, the teams presented the mobile phone apps they had designed to a team of judges from Enzen, a leading specialist in the provision of sustainable energy and water.
Students were tasked with creating and developing a mobile phone app that could promote sustainable habits and create a drive for positive changes to help make our planet healthier.
The winning team Project Inspire, from WMG Coventry, won the judges over with their design that used gamification in a Pokémon Go style based app where participants gain XP by joining and completing community lead projects to help create a greener and more sustainable local environment. Our two other groups, Leafy Legends and Eco-Habits also impressed the judges, completing a full sweep for the Coventry teams as they gained the second and third places respectively.
