    * The Competition

Innovation 360 is a 6 weeks national competition starting from Monday 08 November and ending 20 December.

Every 2 weeks, on Monday, (i.e. November 29, December 13 and December 27) we will unveil a new challenge to test your innovativeness and creativity.

    * How to Participate

If you believe you’ve got the solution to the week’s challenge, simply send the top lines of your idea in 160 characters to our SMS short code – 32326 by Wednesday of the first week (you can send in as many ideas as you want). We will send you a response text to confirm receipt of your idea.

The format for sending the text message should be: Mail<SPACE>Idea e.g Mail I think Nigeria can go green by using energy efficient light bulbs…

Our in-house screeners will shortlist all SMS received down to the 30 best ideas by Monday of the second week. If yours is one of them, you then get to send in a 750 words description of your bright idea to us. This must come in by Wednesday of the second week.

The top 10 ideas are shortlisted and a telephone interview conducted. By the end of the second week, we will pick the top 5 ideas for the week that then go on to the finals.

This cycle takes place 3 times. At the end of the Third Task (after 6 weeks), we will have 20 shortlisted people who go on to the grand finale.

The grand finale will be a Board Interview in Lagos. All 20 participants get to face a Board comprising of high profile UK Alumni, UKBA and British Council representatives, with different individual and group tasks to test their creativity and innovativeness to the utmost.

At the end of this full day process, the Board will select the final winners for the competition.
