This year Imagine Cup 2011 theme is “ imagine a world where technology helps solve the toughest problems” . So, keeping this theme in mind, students from around the globe put their effort in developing a solution. A solution that helps in making this world a better place to live, to create , to design , to contribute and all of this through using power of technology.

The competitions in which students can compete are software design, embedded development, game design, digital media, windows phone 7, IT challenge. An important thing to remember is that the software must be designed on .NET Framework using visual studio or lets just say the software must be made using Microsoft Product. Students have to register individually or as a team in www.imaginecup.com in order to compete. A team contain maximum 4 students and a mentor.( http://www.imaginecup.com/faculty-mentors)

I am looking forward to Team Nepal and wish them success who are going to compete in Imagine Cup.

Its not just a software, it’s a solution . So don’t stop dreaming at all, start to imagine.
