Credit: ‘MIT Technology Review, Spanish Edition’. The 10 finalists gathered on October 15th at the new Casa del Gobierno de la Ciudad de Buenos Aires (Argentina) to receive their awards. More than 150 people attended the event to learn firsthand about the ideas of our new Innovators Under 25 and to hear the announcement of the two special mentions: Innovator of the Year and Social Innovator. Our assistant director of MIT Technology Review, Spanish Edition and the VP of People at Opinno, Cecilia Nicolini (http://www.opinno.com/en/users/cecilia-nicolini), served as MC for the ceremony. "The innovators we selected are working on projects that aim to solve problems in innovative ways and improve the lives of millions of people", Nicolini highlighted. Along with Nicolini, the event included the participation of additional leaders from MIT like the vice president and treasurer of MIT, Israel Ruiz, the researcher from the MIT Senseable City Lab Jonathan Feng Sun, and the founder of the MIT Metro Lab, Gabriel Lanfranchi. We were also able to include several winners of previous editions such as the CEO of Acámica, Tomás Escobar, the CEO and founder of VU Security, Sebastián Stranieri, and the CEO of Fnbox, Rodrigo Teijeiro. In order to guarantee the excellence of the winning projects, selected from amongst 150 candidatures, we engaged an international panel of expert judges (http://innovatorsunder35.com/community-judges) to whom we at Opinno wish to extend our gratitude, as well as to the local Government of Buenos Aires, the Inter-American Development Bank, Cites and the City of Vicente Lopez for their support. The aforementioned judges and collaborators, along with our team´s efforts in organizing the competition and the event and promoting the achievements of the award winners, have allowed us to define the final list of Innovators Under 35 Argentina and Uruguay 2015.

    College of Engineering University of California, Berkeley Fall 2016 Augmented Reality New nukes Q+A on Volume 10 Seeing is believing Leaner, greener energy homebrew opioids DYNAMIC DUO Engineering and Berkeley-Haas launch new Management, Entrepreneurship, & Technology undergrad program Dean’sWord Ambidextrous entrepreneurs I believe the best way to prepare our students to create high-impact technologies and ventures is to teach them the skills to be career-long innovative thinkers. Whether at an established corporation, or at a startup operating out of a dorm room, innovators share some traits: Innovators solve problems and invent things. They tirelessly look for ways to improve. So, I think, in order to teach innovation, we must embrace it ourselves. That’s why we have created a new academic program and formed a new partnership. It is with Berkeley is one of great enthusiasm that I’m looking forward to receiving the applications for the inau- gural class of the Management, Entrepreneurship, & Technology (M.E.T.) program, only two institutions which will launch next fall. Working in collaboration with the Haas School of Business, we will give M.E.T. undergraduates a more comprehensive and holistic look at the way innovative thinking in the world offering can lead to impact. They will be able to graduate with two degrees, one in business and one in engineering, in four years. this kind of program. The new program adds to the college’s already thriving innovation ecosystem. Our Sutardja Center for Entrepreneurship and Technology, Fung Institute for Engineering Leadership and Jacobs Institute for Design Innovation, along with many campus partners, are all working in concert to meet the growing demands of our students looking for a technically focused, yet multidisciplinary education.

Chemical manufacturing currently consumes roughly 10% of the world’s energy demand, mostly in the form of fossil fuel-generated heat for thermochemical reactions, but Modestino’s research is advancing organic electrosynthesis — which relies on electricity, not heat, to drive reactions — and which can be generated by solar, wind, or other renewable means, thereby reducing carbon emissions compared to current methods for thermochemical reactions, which rely on petroleum or coal. Modestino explains that if the industry transitions from thermochemical to electrochemical processes involving clean electricity sources, the reduction in carbon dioxide emissions would be enormous. He estimates that implementing organic electrochemical processes at large scale, driven by solar
