As you all know, each team will have (an equivalent of) about 15 minutes for presentation, 15 minutes for demonstration and 15 minutes for interaction – in all up to about 45 minutes.

Please plan your presentations to introduce your idea, indicate how you went about realizing it, what results are achieved and what’s the next phase. Presentation guidelines are as below:
