Smart Assets, Infrastructure and Facilities

6 and 7 September 2018

 

Prizes:
  • $10,000 cash for the overall winner
  • 2 x $1,000 cash for two runners up
  • 1 month of space at Startupbootcamp’s workspace with weekly mentoring sessions
  • Various prizes from the tech partners

 

Challenge:

As we live and operate in increasingly complex environments, it is critical that assets, infrastructure and facilities are managed and maintained in a smart and efficient manner. Adding to the complexity is the need to balance financial constraints with growing expectations of tailored end-user experiences, on-demand services, and more sustainable and efficient outcomes.

To provide world leading services, Downer and Spotless are looking to engage the complete innovation ecosystem, from our employees, to start-ups, universities and our customers.

We are looking for solutions that can help:

  • Collect and process data from assets, infrastructure and facilities
  • Optimise their performance and reliability
  • Increase their lifespan
  • Improve their sustainability
  • Enhance their energy efficiency
  • Reduce their waste
  • Enhance their end-user experience.

To help you solve this challenge to the best of your ability, we have partnered with various tech companies who will be offering you the use of their technologies, platforms and expertise throughout the event.
