A Challenge for All of YOU,

Anybody who gets three teams to participate in the Europa Challenge,
as long as those teams end up in the top 20, not too tough to do,
I will see that person gets their own NASA Crystal Bull!

http://eurochallenge.como.polimi.it/

That is how important I believe this challenge is, for the students,
the SMEs and all the rest of us who will benefit from the progress
those teams provide to our world.

Providing for cities and helping them to work together is essential!
If we are ever to move forward together into a sustainable world!

Yes, yes, it is ^Open^ to everybody!

In previous years we have had candidates form India, China and USA, as well as several European countries.

Anyone can take home the NASA Crystal Bull!

The Europa Challenge, now in its fourth year, is a worldwide international challenge.
http://eurochallenge.como.polimi.it/

Europa is daughter of the deities Oceanus<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oceanus> and Tethys<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tethys_%28mythology%29>,
and also known for being a paramour of Zeus,
who came to her as a bull.

​Hi Patrick. Is the Europa Challenge close to Europeans? I'm almost sure it isn't but it will be better to clarify upon this. Thanks,

Progress! Defining the CitySmart target. . .

We are further defining what we need for a CitySmart platform.
Thanks to a University Professor (University of Kansas) and
the IT Director for a City (Springfield Oregon USA).

Wish the UN GGIM would play with us. We could help them get results!
These identify the same needs we want to address with OpenCitySmart,

Our OpenCitySmart, please join us and help this effort!
We need to get our cities working together to address their common needs,
