The challenge brief
Problem → Product → Prototype.
Teams receive a business or user problem. They must define the user, prioritise the core need, create a simple app prototype and demonstrate why the solution matters.
Agree the mission rules and success criteria during the briefing, then let your team choose its approach.
What shapes the challenge
- Teams cannot build every feature
- User value determines priority
- A test user can challenge assumptions
- The final pitch must connect problem, solution and evidence
