maximize their potential to change the
world. Innovators may submit their idea proposals until
April 25, 2018.
The Nokia Bell Labs Prize competition seeks disruptive
innovative proposals that address the grand human challenges that
drive and will underpin the fourth industrial revolution, and
enable an enhanced ability to sense, control and automate
everything. We see this revolution as being driven by augmented
intelligence systems connecting to a trillion sensors, systems,
platforms and automata/robots over a massive scale distributed
network infrastructure, supporting ultra-low latency and ultra-high
capacity, reliability and security. The ultimate human goal of this
technological revolution is to create and/or save time spent on
mundane or repetitive tasks, by creating new knowledge for
intelligent control of automated systems.
Prizes up to $175,000 will be awarded to the first, second and
third place winners, who will also be rewarded with an opportunity
to collaborate with world-renowned Nokia Bell Labs researchers and
interact with a luminary judging panel.
Marcus Weldon, president of Nokia Bell Labs & CTO for
Nokia, said: "We are at the beginning of the fourth industrial
revolution that will transform human existence in previously
unimaginable ways.The Bell Labs Prize seeks innovators who will
power this revolution, with an interest in collaborating with a
wide diversity of intellects, disciplines, backgrounds, skills,
geographies, philosophies...everything - that's the classic 'Bell
Labs way', and the secret of our success."
