CIS in collaboration with iMorph, Inc. and Program For the Future, is organizing a Tweetup on Dec 20th, 2009 at TERI from 4pm to 7pm.
The tweetup is to increase the awareness for "Improving Collective Intelligence".
Tools like Twitter and other social networks allow global participation of a large number of people in solving some of the World's pressing problems. This Tweetup is aimed at identifying some of these problems, brainstorming about ways to solve them and raise the awareness of the power of Collective Intelligence.
Specially, a Collective Intelligence Challenge organized by "The Program For The Future" will be the first step towards the effort. A description of the project (from the website - http://thetechvirtual.org/projects)
Develop a practical method, tool or technology that connects people so that they collectively act more intelligently. The challenge embraces all areas of human endeavor – not just technical domains like computing or engineering but also the arts, business, economics, education, government, health, law, philanthropy, science and other spheres. Winning entries will be displayed in the participating museums.
Participating museums: Tech Museum of Innovation, MIT Museum , Science Center Singapore, Citilab Barcelona, Global Women's Leadership Network
Indian Organizations - National Institute of Engineering, Mysore, Innovation Cell at KCG College of Technology
