Creative Futures Academy, in collaboration with the Media Cube at IADT, invites students from IADT, NCAD and UCD to take part in a 24-Hour Design Challenge on the 18th – 19th November 2022 in IADT.

Racing against the clock, you will complete a series of Design Thinking games and tasks, concluding with a presentation of your final ideas. Oh, and the best part? The winning team will receive a grand prize of €1,000.
