    Influx trust is a charity dedicated to building a better United Nations and support better engagement between the UN and the public using innovative technology. They do this successfully by being outside the UN and by coordinating between.

    AIM: The aim of this initiative is to make this into an annual event people want to be a part of. In concrete terms create 3 start ups per city, with one start up in each city becoming a business that we can help take from idea to market each year. In time we hope to have a TEDx effect where cities, villages and communities all over the world can join us and be part of the global conversation around problems we all share as a planet.

    OUTPUT: We want participants to leave the event with pitch decks, a basic prototype, and a team to continue working with. Winners get a chance to pitch at the UN HQ during the Science and Technology Innovation Conference on May 15-16th in front of heads of state and SDG ambassadors.
