\nThe participants will learn the design thinking method by doing fun and engaging exercises. You will also meet other people who are interested in media innovations.

\nUutisraivaaja Bootcamp is intended for anyone who is interested in media innovations and\/or Uutisraivaaja competition. You don\u2019t need to have a fully developed idea yet, or actually, you don\u2019t need an idea at all \u2013 the camp is an excellent opportunity to brainstorm and come up with new ideas. If you already have an idea for the competition, you can develop it and get feedback, so you can improve your idea.
\nThe Bootcamp has limited space, and if there are more applicants than we can accommodate, the participants will be selected based on their application for the camp.
\nIf you have a team, it is beneficial to have as many team members to participate in the camp as possible. Please indicate clearly at the sign up sheet what is your team name.<\/p>\n
