EVENT OVERVIEW There is something extraordinary happening in the world. Over the last 20 years, the internet and smart phones accelerated innovation exponentially and changed the world as we know it. Now the next digital revolution has begun: the IoT (internet of things) and sensor revolution. Most of these advances will emerge from companies that don’t even exist today—from teams of young entrepreneurs

The second digital revolution will be 100 times bigger than the Internet

known as startups. Our sixth season of the “Brave New World” Startups Creation Program will be organized by and held in HUB385’s startup co-sharing space in Zagreb. This will be the biggest startup event of its kind in this part of Europe and will engage hundreds of thousands of developers, engineers, creatives, makers, hackers, architects, 3D designers and many other professionals and students. The world’s foremost innovators, will join the local community to develop successful local startups that embrace the

latest cutting-edge technology, all while solving real problems of their cities. The ‘Brave New World’ program starts with a five-day event consisting of a conference, Zero-to-Hero Workshops, and a Challenge hackathon, with the goal of imparting knowledge, motivating developers and other citizens, and finally, developing real-world solutions using the latest tech. This event sparks interest around smart cities, IoT, drones, ponics and robotics, and generates local community support, but more importantly, finds the best people capable of building startups that will solve local problems. By the end of the final event, the city and local industries will already have its first functional applications and devices built by its very own.

4.06 CONFERENCE The “Brave New World” kicks off with a conference where the most knowledgable speakers share their expertise and discuss the latest technologies, best practices, and success stories of smart city, IOT, drones, robotics and ponics implementations around the world. We bring together the world's best speakers with practical knowledge to participate as presenters at the event. Speakers are mostly practitioners, young people themselves, startup founders, and executives in the modern world of smart city IoT, drones, robotics, ponics systems and will discuss topics related to city-level solutions with three goals in mind:

5

1.

Demonstrating that certain problems can not only be solved, but have already been solved elsewhere

2.

Showcasing real-world case studies and implementations that solve these problems

3.

Getting the wider city community involved. Besides involving developers, engineers, and makers, the key to success is also involving architects, urbanists, ecologists, government officials, students, etc.

5.06 ZERO TO HERO WORKSHOPS After the conference, the following day will be dedicated to a series of workshops that provide in-depth training on the latest technology necessary for building smart city IOT, drones, robotics, and ponics systems applications and devices. The workshops are intensive “Zero to Hero” bootcamps where in 1 day attendees can learn everything from the basics all the way to building a fully functional application or device. Workshops will feature the latest and coolest future tech from autonomous drones and hydroponics, to robotics and building your own IoT devices.

10.06-12.06 STARTUP HACKATHON The event culminates in a 48-hour hackathon weekend, where developers, engineers, makers, architects, UI/UX designers and others apply everything they learned and join forces to build the best smart city solutions for their challenges using IoT and robotics technology. The hackathon results in multiple functional usable apps and devices. Team projects are presented on Sunday and the winners have often been rewarded with access to startup shared space, maker labs, coaches, equipment, and other things needed for their success. 10

During the hackathon, we provide mentors, a hardware lab, computers for development of mobile apps, as well as food, drinks and everything else needed by participants.

RESULTS This event is the sixth season installment of its kind, and consistently delivers successful results and a lasting, tangible impact. To date, over 60 applications and devices were created during these events and more than fifteen different companies were created.
