= '''Project Pitch Video - Fall '17''' =

#<div>Facilitate the inscription of lone students who don’t know anyone in other careers by providing channels for them to meet others.</div>

#<div>Hold first competitions and then showcase alumni’s work in I&E to get students from all majors motivated and in sync with I&E.</div>

<div~~></span~~> </div>

== Increase the amount of activities surrounding the I&E ecosystem ==

At Uniandes, there are not many activities about I&E that really engage students with the participation circles, as students generally approach them with their own startups and business ideas. By increasing the amount of activities surrounding the I&E ecosystem, students will become more engaged and will learn about such ecosystem. Additionally, they will understand how it works and where to find information about the participation circles.

#<div>With the unification and organization of the participation circles, create better communication channels for the students</div>

#<div></span>Interview and interact with students to understand which types of activities would attract them to participate (competitions, summits, challenges, etc.)</div>

#<div>Begin communicating with all the faculties and start organizing and offering spaces and activities about I&E more frequently. </div>

== Bring investors from different industries to “Semana de la innovación” (Innovation week) ==

During “Semana de la innovación” in the university students present their startups and the projects they developed during the semester to other students. Unfortunately the majority of these projects stay in an initial phase and do not transcend to become a real venture due to the lack of support and funding. We want to bring investors that could be interested in these opportunities and will offer funding and support for students to build and take forward their venture.

==== </span>Tactics + Milestones: ====

#<div>Generate alliances with investors of different industries</div>

#<div></span>Give easy access to people from outside the university to the innovation week fair</div>

#<div>Publicize the week of innovation outside of the university</div>

#<div>Talk to the different organizations dedicated to I&E in the university to get involved and help students pursue their idea. </div>

== Have a class open for students in every faculty where students will have to go to the real world and test their startup ideas. ==

The courses offered by the university  that incorporate I&E into the formal learning curriculum is either of the Business, Design or Engineering department but currently it does not exist a course open for every student in the university that incorporates I&E.  The idea will be to open an elective course that helps entrepreneurs develop and test their idea in the real world. The course will be open for everyone. We think if students have some sort of orientation and support from experts there is a higher probability that the projects will succeed or at least get to the phase of pursue or spin out. ==== Tactics + Milestones: ====

#<div>Present the idea of a new course elective course to the directives<br/span><br/~~span~~></div>#<div></span~~>Design the curriculum of the course with the help of the business faculty<br/span><br/~~span~~></div>#<div>List potential teachers that could lead the course<br/span><br/~~span~~></div>#<div>Conduct surveys to students of different faculties as to whether they would be interested in the course<br/span><br/~~span></div>

#<div>Conduct surveys to students of different faculties to know the amount of students that currently have a startup or are in the process of developing one. </div>

== Create design thinking workshops that involve students in innovating courses in order to really address their needs and tastes ==

Currently the university is working on reforming some of the courses including innovative forms of education and training teachers in innovation in education. Although this effort has been helpful and successful in some courses,  it is common that the ideas teachers have and think will improve the course are not attractive for students. We think it is different when adults ideate for students than when the students are involved in the process of innovation. By creating spaces in which teachers and students can work and think together in innovative solutions and changes for the courses, the needs and tastes of students will be really address and the changes in the courses could be more successful.==== Tactics + Milestones: ====

#<div>Talk to Conecta-TE to understand the process and workshops they develop to innovate in courses.<br/span><br/~~span~~></div>#<div></span~~>Propose workshops of design thinking with teachers, students and teacher assistants. <br/span><br/~~span~~></div>#<div>Encourage students to be a part of the initiatives in their spare time,<br/span><br/~~span></div>

#<div>Encourage both students and faculty to try to grasp a deeper understanding of all the benefits that can be derived from innovating in their courses.</div>

~~ ~~ ~~= Stategy #3: Enhancing the innovative spirit of the community. =~~ ~~== Entrepreneurship competitions among the different universities. ==~~We intend to continue establishing an annual entrepreneurship competition among the top universities in the region. This is key to ensure that the universities will be endorsing one, two, or a few teams, which further means that the students have someone to cheer for, someone with whom they have some things in common (even though they might not know each other, they will both be students at the same institution).~~===~~= '''~~Tactics + Milestones''' ====~~ Strategy #<div>The Make-a-thon format could be really interesting to foment school spirit, because the resulting product (tangible, observable) is something other students can wrap their heads around even if they are ignorant on the matter, thus enhancing the backing of the participant and the school spirit.</div>~~#<div>Design thinking workshops that give the participants the tools to further develop their initial projects.</div>#<div>Create the inter-university alliance of schools that will take part in the competition. Set up a contract determining how the logistics costs will be handled.</div>#<div>Set up dates and topics of each workshop.</div>#<div>Develop printed out formats for the students to work on.</div>#<div>Find external funding to be able to offer a hefty prize! Any sum of money, will not only be of great emotional value for the winner (since he worked hard and won) but also because money is one of the toughest things to access as a young entrepreneur, so we would be really setting the winner’s dreams in motion.</div> ~~== UniAndes Entrepreneur/Leader Showcasing ==~~Each semester, the main gallery at Universidad de lo Andes, should do a profile on the entrepreneur or leader of the semester and his work. This exhibition could help the student get funding, plus it would be quite an honor to be selected to set up this exhibition.~~==== ''~~'~~Tactics + Milestones~~''~~' ====~~ #<div>Determine what criteria will be employed to evaluate the different entrepreneurs and leaders.</div>#<div>Get in touch with local news and press agencies to increase the reach and the visibility of the exhibition.</div>#<div>Set up a specific date to have the gallery automatically reserved each semester.</div>   ~~== Live streaming of the University’s sports events ==~~<span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Sports are one of the strongest bonds that young people have among them. Specially in Latin America, where soccer is pretty much a religion for example, being able to broadcast the “fútbol” games to the rest of the community online is something that would definitely bring the community together. That said, we intend to transmit all games (not just soccer games) because we think that there is no reason to exclude others. Even if only one person watches Encourage a ~~Chess Match’s broadcasting, we will be happy~~ more complete exposure to ~~think that we made that one extra person happy and it only took a few extra clicks programming the link to watch it.==== '''Tactics + Milestones''' ====~~ #Implement a tab on the main website where the games are broadcasted.#Conduct surveys to see which games are most people interested in.#From this it will be easier to analyze which games should we focus on broadcasting first. ~~ ~~ ~~== “Uniandinos de frente al país”~~ I&~~nbsp;~~E initiatives (~~Los Andes Students Facing Reality) ==<span style="font-family: Arial; color: rgb(0~~all faculties, 0careers, 0); background-color: transparent; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">There false stereotype that haunts Los Andes' students. Back in the 1980’s an opinion column was written were it was said that us students of los Andes are “de frente a Monserrate y de espaldas al país”, which basically says in a pejorative manner that we are not sufficiently conscious of the real issues local communities face. “Uniandinos de frente al país” intends to tackle this stereotype by proposing an institutional day of service, where students are encouraged to participate in one of the 100+ volunteering projects offered by the Mayor's office.~~==== '''Tactics + Milestones''' ====~~ ~~#Get in touch with Enrique Peñalosa, the current Mayor in office, to pitch to him the idea.#Define the alliance, and set up a date, that both the “alcaldía” and Los Andes agree upon.#Create a sign up mechanism, to try~~ and ~~accommodate the majority~~ stages of the ~~people in doing an activity that interests them.#Set up a meeting with the Headmaster of Los Andes, Pablo Navas, to pitch to him the idea for this new Institutional Day off regular classes.~~ ~~= Related Links =~~ Landscape Canvas: [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1AVsDHNPMqapwKPZxsL116nfW9AvSd_J3na8h0ZgHh00/edit?usp=sharing https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1AVsDHNPMqapwKPZxsL116nfW9AvSd_J3na8h0ZgHh00/edit?usp=sharing] ~~Universidad de los Andes Overview: [http://universityinnovation.org/wiki/Universidad_de_los_Andes Universidad de Los Andes]~~ ~~Universidad de los Andes Student Priorities: [[Universidad de los Andes Student Priorities|Universidad de los Andes Student Priorities]]~~ ~~'''Student Contributors'''~~ ~~[[Pedro Juan Isaza|Pedro Juan Isaza]]~~ ~~[[Camila Buenaventura Marquez|Camila Buenaventura]]~~ ~~[[Nicolas Castro Helo|Nicolás Castro]]~~ ~~[[Diana Solano|Diana Solano]]
