The Technology Forum of Delaware’s 2015 “Idea Challenge” Representing Start It Up Delaware, a Wilmington-based public-private partnership that serves as a hub for entrepreneurs, Mike Gnade ’01, Katie O’ Hara ’03 and Nick Matarese ’03 were part of a nine-member team that won the 2015 Idea Challenge, held by the Technology Forum of Delaware. Those competing in the challenge were given three hours to develop a high-tech concept that would attract new business and young professionals to Wilmington. The Start It Up team proposed “Beacons,” or solar-powered multi-touch kiosks, which would direct residents and visitors to events and happenings in the city. Additionally, the Beacons would locate parking spaces, provide free WiFi and cellphone charging and offer “heat maps” showing real-time nightlife activity.
