festival that takes place for the first time

creativity will intersect.
Today, data and technology are driving

engaged around climate change and

24. Great Work …
Doesn’t shy away from data, it embraces and simplifies
Uses Artificial Intelligence, Virtual Reality and technology to enhance
Doesn’t overcomplicate, it simplifies
Has a purpose, gives something in return
Can come from anyone, anywhere!

25. And most importantly
Remember to have some fun doing it!
