Ever since we have been organising this competition in India, every year we reach out to more than 3000 schools for participating in this competition. The basic idea being informing more and more teachers and students all across Asia about the wonderful mode of learning that has evolved over 20 years of execution.

From all around Asia, we have been handling hundreds of queries about various aspects of the competitions but when it comes down to participation, we have noticed that a few factors hinder the participation of kids and teachers alike. Lack of awareness and understanding of the basic concepts involved, lack of confidence, no one to guide the team, and many more.

What people do not realise is that the real product of the Competition is not the proposals or designs, but what the Competition experience does to the participants. We pick a winner to emulate industry, where only one company gets to perform the contract, even though there may be many outstanding designs worth building--but winning is not what's important in the Design Competition. Learning is what's important. Going through the process is what it's all about.

Realising that most of the schools face the same problems, we have formed a panel of experts, to conduct workshops at your school. They can give your teams a head start.

Our Experts have experience of leading winning teams at the Asian and the International Competition. They can conduct workshops at your school and give your students all the intricate details needed in understanding and designing Space Settlements.

"On behalf of the management , staff & students of Amity International school, Noida , I would like to thank you for the amazing workshop you conducted for us.

I was taken aback by the depth of your knowledge & with what humbleness & simplicity you imparted it. It was not a one way traffic, you made the students sit up & think for themselves. Though informal, the workshop was very enriching & mind stimulating. You did not make it intimidating at all! You initiated the children to start with the basics and then proceed step by step. You helped them to address first things first and most importantly to understand the question thoroughly. Even the 13year olds could understand quite a bit and enjoyed interacting with you!

Our students are definitely inspired by you & are now I feel the effort will come from within. You are surely a role model for them. Keep up the great work! I am sure the students have not only gained insight for this competition but for any competition or problem they would face in the future. They know precisely how to go about any difficult task now!
Thanks!"

"The International Space Settlement Design Competition is the most intriguing and challenging competition that one can come across. Before this workshop I was merely reaching out in the dark, but through it I was shown light. And I can only thank Mr. Abhishek Agarwal for it.

The workshops purpose was to guide us in how to best make use of time, handwork, creativity and channel it to success in this competition and beyond. Success beyond this competition too, because these industrial skills that are taught in this workshop are invaluable in a future perspective. The highlight of the workshop was that it was completely informal and highly interactive. That made sure the interest never waned and continued to escalate through out the length of the program.

Every single intricacy and detail of the competition was lucidly discussed and explained. Each and every doubt was cleared and our concepts made stronger. Most importantly we were taught how to look at the larger picture and how to find simple logical solutions to a complicated problem. And that in essence is the underlying principle of the workshop."
