The 3D Housing project is a virtual simulator of big real-estate initiatives which was developed by ORT Belgrano campus School students. The project qualified for the TIC Americas 2010 finals among more than 1200 teams from the continent. The Talent and Innovation Competition will be carried out in Lima, Peru, next June 2010 within the framework of the XI Summit of the Americas.
The team constituted by students from the ICT track (Luciano Bertenasco, Pascual Galliverti, Matías Nisenson and Melanie Babour) and the Business Administration track (Alan Kronik, Cindy Russo y Daiana Ganiewich) worked together to apply for a place at the competition under the guidance of the teacher Clara Rujinsky. The selected project was part of the 5th-year school curriculum.
This is an international competition which gives awards to business plans by young entrepreneurs of up to 35 years old. The contest has been developed by the Young Americas Business Trust (YABT), a private-sector organization which cooperates with the General Assembly of the Organization of the American States (OAS).
ORT Technical School will represent Argentina in the ‘Technology’ category and the students will introduce their project in English.
“Our School is the only high-school institution which has participated in the contest. It competed with universities, small and medium size enterprises and training companies from the entire continent. We congratulate all the students who took part in this challenging competition. We feel very proud of them and we wish them all the best for the rest of the contest!” –said ORT Argentina Executive Director, Adrián Moscovich.
