The 8th National Technology Parade
The University of Jordan, April 29th, 2015

Call for Participation


The national technology parade (NTP) is an annual event held at one of the Jordanian universities in collaboration with Queen Rania Center for Entrepreneurship (QRCE). This event aims at motivating the innovative thinking among Jordanian undergraduate students and at unlocking their potentials. It also aims at directing the efforts of students and faculty toward exploiting technology to solve local problems at the national level, and at building an integration and effective cooperation between industry and academia. The eighth NTP will be held in The University of Jordan on April 29, 2015. The 8th NTP comes with more focus on the role of technology in improving the quality of life. This improvement is sought in several areas including sustainable living, public safety, childcare, healthcare, service automation and e-services, entertainment, and others.
