At Madarek, we are dedicated to fostering innovation and collaboration through our dynamic platform. We recently managed the ideation process for the Dotnxt Jadeer Ideation Battle, an exclusive challenge for Dotnxt Jadeer program affiliates. This initiative not only encouraged startups to showcase their creative ideas but also engaged the public and experts in the voting and evaluation process, making it a truly community-driven event.

 Challenge Overview

Exclusive Participation: The Dotnxt Jadeer Ideation Battle was open to affiliates in Phase 2 of the Dotnxt Jadeer Program. Each participant could submit only one idea, ensuring that they put forth their best and most refined concepts.

Public Voting: This challenge stood out by incorporating public voting. Participants were encouraged to set their idea visibility to "Public" and actively promote the challenge URL within their networks to gather votes. This not only maximized engagement but also created a buzz around the innovative ideas being presented.

Expert Evaluation: After the public voting phase, the top 100 ideas with the highest votes were shortlisted for the final round. These shortlisted ideas were then evaluated by a panel of experts, who assessed their potential and viability for participation in the startup bootcamp.

 Impact and Benefits

Community Engagement: By involving the public in the voting process, the challenge fostered a sense of community and encouraged widespread participation. This approach helped build a supportive environment where peers could recognize and vote for the most promising ideas.

Promoting Innovation: The challenge provided a platform for startups to present their innovative solutions, promoting creativity and out-of-the-box thinking. The competitive nature of the challenge spurred participants to refine their ideas and strive for excellence.

Expert Insight: The final evaluation by a panel of experts ensured that the most viable and impactful ideas were selected. This not only provided valuable feedback to the participants but also helped in identifying high-potential startups for the next phase of the Dotnxt Jadeer Program.

Networking Opportunities: Participants benefited from increased visibility and the opportunity to connect with other innovators, experts, and potential investors. This networking aspect is crucial for the growth and development of startups.

 Conclusion

The Dotnxt Jadeer Ideation Battle, managed by Madarek, exemplifies how our platform can drive innovation through community and expert engagement. The challenge successfully harnessed the power of public voting and expert evaluation to identify and promote promising startup ideas.
