Business is fun: Apps for good

This has been an exciting week at the Escuela Profesional Javeriana: we launched our project "Apps for good" in the Administration Assistant class. The teacher’s team have been doing the training and working on the planning for about two months and we were ready to implement it.

But you probably wonder what Apps for good is… this is how Rodrigo Baggio, CDI Apps for Good, Founding Chairman & Founder CDI Global describes it:

“Our goal is to transform the way technology is taught in schools; to empower students from all backgrounds to seize the opportunities of our digital age and create solutions to the problems they care about, using technology”.

Can you imagine trying to take the metro in Beijing with all the signs in Chinese? The new App launched by google could be really helpful when you visit countries where you do not know the language.
Are you interested? Watch this video by The Guardian trying the application in Times Square.

As you can see it does not work for Chinese jet ;)
