SUMMER OF INNOVATION COMPETITION – ENTRIES NOW OPEN

This is a fantastic opportunity for businesses, the public and students to work together to find a digital solution for a business or social need in Guernsey.

Set over the summer the competition will require the entrants to identify an issue, put together a team and work on a solution to be submitted to the judges on Friday 4th September.

Maybe you have an idea that could help the GSPCA or animals in Guernsey?

For example how about working towards a data base of all dogs and cats microchipped in Guernsey?
