19th April 2016<\/span><\/p>\n

Co-chairs: Robert McDonald and Damian Pattinson<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Think….<\/strong> how could you make a real difference to research communications? Are you looking for like-minded people, and would a seed fund of $1,500 help kick-start your project? As part of its commitment to collaboration, transparency and innovation, the FORCE2016 conference is updating its $1K Challenge session (more funding – $1,500) and encourages all delegates (both actual and virtual) to participate.<\/p>\n

This is how….<\/strong>You can start gathering your thoughts and teams any time between now and April 18 using the Jisc Elevator Pitch software <\/a>(https:\/\/elevator.jisc.ac.uk\/e\/force2016).<\/p>\n

Need help?….<\/strong>We now have a tutorial video available on YouTube to demonstrate how to enter your ideas (www.youtube.com\/watch?v=9f-0JV93dC4<\/a>) using YouTube<\/a> and the Jisc Elevator Software<\/a>. The entry video can be utilized as the live pitch of the idea at the Pitch-It Innovation Challenge Session<\/a> on April 19 if the video will fit into the 3-5 minute pitch timeframe. Entries can also prepare a live pitch session as well as the video.<\/p>\n

When will this happen?….<\/strong>Voting will take place in real time by meeting delegates at FORCE2016 during the PITCH IT: INNOVATION CHALLENGESession on April 19 at 1:15pm (https:\/\/www.force11.org\/f11_tool\/?A=L21lZXRpbmdzL2ZvcmNlMjAxNi9wcm9ncmFtL2FnZW5kYS1kZXRhaWxz&<\/a>), with winners announced before the end of the FORCE2016 Conference.<\/p>\n

What could you win?….<\/strong>Thanks to our generous sponsor Jisc<\/a>, winning ideas will receive $1,500 and will be invited to present at FORCE17 and will receive funding (up to $2000) to support their travel for that attendance. As additional support, winning entries will also have the option of a monthly telecon hosted by a member of the FORCE11 Pitch-It Innovation Challenge Expert Panel.<\/p>\n

And, Ethical Guideline….<\/strong>We request that all entrants keep in mind the ethos of FORCE11, and that they endeavour to uphold it so that we can keep the rules and restrictions to a minimum. Rules: An individual can only be associated with a single entry per year. Any evidence of vote-rigging will result in the disqualification of affected entries.<\/p>\n
