JellyGO Team Showcases Innovation at UNESCO's OP24 Symposium
The JellyGO team, recently presented their work at the prestigious OP24 Symposium held at UNESCO Headquarters in Paris. This event marked a significant milestone in their journey from local innovation to global recognition.
Journey from Ocean Hackathon Kuala Lumpur to the Global Stage
The JellyGO team's ascent began at the Ocean Hackathon Kuala Lumpur (OHKL) 2022, where they developed a mobile application designed to monitor and predict jellyfish distributions around Penang Island. Their innovative solution not only secured them the top position at OHKL but also propelled them to the international arena, culminating in their presentation at the OP24 Symposium.
OHKL: Fostering Marine Innovation
The success of the JellyGO team underscores the pivotal role of OHKL in nurturing innovative solutions to marine challenges. By providing a collaborative environment and access to extensive marine data, OHKL serves as a catalyst for participants to develop practical applications with real-world impact.
Encouraging Future Participation
Aspiring innovators, marine enthusiasts, and tech developers are encouraged to participate in upcoming OHKL events. Engaging in these hackathons offers a unique opportunity to contribute to ocean sustainability and potentially bring ideas to the global stage, following in the footsteps of the JellyGO team.
Stay connected with OHKL for announcements on future events and become part of the movement driving sustainable ocean solutions.
