Apeejay Stya University in Delhi, India

Description

The MIT Media Lab and Apeejay Stya University will co-host the second Design & Innovation workshop in Delhi, India from March 26-30, 2012. This workshop aims to engage and inspire students, academics, and members of industry across all disciplines in inventing the future. The workshop will engage participants in ideation, design, and implementation of prototypes together with Media Lab and local mentors. The workshop will culminate in a plenary conference and exhibition that will be open to visitors from academia, industry leaders, and the media.
The workshop has been designed around the MIT Media Lab philosophy, where the future is lived, not imagined. In a world where radical technology advances are taken for granted, Media Lab researchers design technologies for people to create a better future. The Media Lab culture of research involves working closely with industry and we believe this workshop will offer participants and attendees a flavor of how the Media Lab "invents the future."
