Summer of Ideas
Overview
Summer of Ideas initiative will redefine learning experience for university students worldwide. This global eight-week ideathon, powered by Infosys digital learning platform Wingspan, will help the global student and academic community fulfill the gap of learning opportunities as a result of the disruption caused by COVID-19.
According to UNESCO, 1.2 billion students and youth have been impacted by COVID-19. This has created an invariable gap in their learning opportunities. Infosys has always believed in lifelong learning as a key strategy pillar for our employees as well as our partner universe. Today over 200,000 of our employees use our in-house digital learning platform to reskill and up-skill themselves. Summer of Ideas has also been developed with the same vision in mind.
Infosys Summer of Ideas is a great way to energize and ideate, to push boundaries of our capabilities in a fun and creative environment. It is the new-normal method of collaborating, conceptualizing, and creating with your teams. The Ideathon will feature ideas and thoughts with an objective to deliver agile and implementable solutions relevant for the post Covid world.
