Sharing Knowledge on #techforgood at UOW Red Bull Basement

Red Bull Basement has returned to UOW for the second year in a row to encourage university students to use #techforgood. Last year we saw some fantastic inventions built with 3D printing, IoT, and other emerging technologies. We’re wishing this year’s participants the best of luck as they start their builds.

A Message from Ken

It’s great to see Red Bull Basement back at UOW. It’s a fantastic way to give students hands-on experience and the opportunity to apply what they learn to solve problems.

Knowledge sharing is of key importance to me and it’s great to have the opportunity to encourage students to try new things, like building with virtual reality.

We cannot wait to see who the winner of the 2019 event is! Best of luck to you all!

While emerging technology is exciting, it is also providing solutions to problems that cannot be solved through other mediums. Take Devika Evenness for example…It’s helping people with a disability to develop sensory skills in a tailored environment through virtual reality.

During the event, Ken shared his thoughts on how to use #techforgood…The secret is to not build technology but rather, a solution to a problem.

Thanks Red Bull and UOW

We couldn’t finish this blog without an honourable mention to Red Bull – thank you for supporting this event and for restocking our fridge! And a big thank you to the event organizers and UOW staff.
