Products And Services 2008 Submission Form

2,000,000 years ago, early humans started making tools for hunting and gathering, which contributed to the survival of the species*. Now, modern men and women (like you!) are still conceiving of such ideas, to make life easier or more interesting. Products and Services is a chance to develop and showcase your ideas that respond to the needs of daily life. *Plummer , T. ( 2004). Flaked stones and old bones: Biological and cultural evolution at the dawn of technology. American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 125(S39), 118 -164.

Products & Services, Part II CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS Products and Services is an opportunity to develop and showcase ideas that address the needs of daily life, from novices and professionals alike. Following the success of Products & Services Part I last year, award-winning designer Catherine David will continue to share her industrial knowledge, and utilise the exhibition platform of rm103, to turn your ideas into products or services.

Process Once we receive your submission, we will get in touch with you about the possibility of developing your idea. Selected entries will be shown in the Products and Services exhibition in December 2008, at rm103. They will also be featured on the Products and Services and rm103 websites.

Tell us your ideas and we may be able to help you realise it, connect you with the right people, or showcase them in the exhibition!

It will be an opportunity for exposure to the design industry, as well as a chance to meet other like-minded individuals.

We are interested in showcasing your ideas and creations that solve everyday problems you encounter, improve upon existing products or make life more interesting.

Submission deadline: November 1st 2008 However, the earlier we find out about your idea, the more likely that we can work with you to develop the idea further.

All ideas will be considered, even impossible ones, should they have the ability to inspire.
