Hi, I'm Atishay Jain, organiser of Design 360, a design hackathon organized at ESYA’19, the annual Techfest of IIITD, which is to be held on 23rd-24th of August 2019. I love to collaborate with Autodesk to make Design 360 a grand success! If you don't handle marketing or such collaborations, please forward this to message to the right person.
ESYA’19, “Techfusion - Tracing the Distant” will celebrate the tranquil coexistence of different isles of Technology. Deriving from the ubiquitous yet non-archaic Concept of Fusion, our fest represents its irrefutable importance in the modern era. ESYA’19 offers a memorable, wholesome, unparalleled experience.
Design 360 is a 16-hour overnight design hackathon where the teams give solutions to critical problems through the wonderful stages of design- Ideation, Research, Prototyping and Iterative Testing.
In this event, the participants will be given a problem statement, and they design innovative solutions to the problem (in stages). Each team will deliver a walkthrough of their brainstorming sessions, show demographics of the audience impacted and the stakeholders, do surveys and interviews to explore the problem in detail, a video trying to sell the product and explaining its social relevance, a clickable UI/UX prototype for their idea and a final report to justify the need for their solution. The participants shall be holistically evaluated in the fields of product design, interaction design, idea generation and relevance of the solution for the stakeholders.
The last edition of Design 360 was a huge success. We had over 40 teams who designed many innovative projects and gave tremendous enthusiasm and feedback. We hope to expand the horizons of this event even further this time!
During our two-day fest, we witness a campus footfall of 10,000+ students from various schools and colleges. Boasting of the best online publicity team in the market, we observe an online eyeball reach of 60,00,000+ via various social media campaigns. For offline publicity, we target over 800+ schools and colleges pan India.
By collaborating with us, you can help in contributing to the ultimate learning experience for a newer generation of Critical and Creative thinkers. Developers, designers, UI enthusiasts, UX architects, HCI enthusiasts of the Indian technology stack unaware of your presence will be able to reach you, vice versa. It will increase the marketability and awareness of your product/services through both online and offline publicity. The event will be publicized everywhere (Website/ Social Media/ Posters/ Flexes) as Design 360 partnered with Autodesk.
Keeping in mind the aforementioned statistics and a competent team dedicated to nurturing a fruitful partnership, ESYA will undoubtedly provide you with a strategically excellent, unparalleled opportunity to establish your brand among the teeming youth.
How are we different?
We aim to provide an experience around your company so that your target audience can connect with you on a personal level.
We also believe in giving back to the society, for which we organise various drives like blood donation camps, tree plantations, computer education for the needy and women in tech initiatives.
Partnering with us provides you with the flexibility to personalise your campaign, and help you promote your company in the best way possible.
With this edition of Design360, we aim to encourage Diversity in Tech, so we will give direct entry to any team having 50% or more female members.
I personally believe Autodesk enables designers to showcase their ideas with ease. The 200+ designers expected to participate in this fall could really benefit from such a collaboration. I would love to provide you with further details. Looking forward to an enriching partnership!
