The Ericsson Innovation Awards are a global university competition, giving students the opportunity to produce innovations based on Information Communication Technology (ICT) potential.
Jack Morton’s internal innovation practice, Genuine X traveled to Stockholm earlier this year to meet the finalists and discuss their ideas.
This year's theme was water, encouraging entrants to Dive Deeper into nature as our largest resource for technology. Ericsson’s search for the future in tech innovation brought us to all four corners of the globe, where just 4 finalists were selected from over 2,000 entries.
Each team has the chance of winning the grand prize of €25,000 and the opportunity to see their innovation bought to life.

“While millions of dollars have been spent on floating offshore wind projects, a huge amount of energy from the ocean currents just under the floaters hasn't been tapped into.”
These four engineers from Japan have designed an economical network of smart systems that can extract energy from natural wind and aquatic resources, in a bid to reduce the need for fossil fuel and nuclear energy. The potential network will be able to self-configure to optimise power production from these renewable energy sources, before autonomously returning to a base for maintenance.
In this episode, we discuss the potential of the εswift design system to generate power, while simultaneously solving ongoing renewable resource challenges.
