Microsoft believes in empowering every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more. As problem solvers, they are rightly placed to create and steer this future in the right direction. As product makers and thinkers, they can envision this not just for ourselves, but for others through empathy and a better understanding of their needs.

Thus, Microsoft introduced the Design Challenge, where the participant's goal is to first, identify a problem in one of the following areas that present an opportunity for a high-impact solution. With this, use human-centric design and techniques to create a solution that uses digital technology to solve the identified problem.

Collaboration	.With our accelerated transition to a hybrid world, how can technology effectively tackle the need for collaboration to innovate remotely and create impact for a better future?
Learning	For this generation of individuals on the cusp of this transformation, how can we go beyond the traditional digital tools to create hybrid ways and methods to exchange knowledge and learn?
Well-being	What can technology and good design do to promote well-being and help an individual deliver an effective output?
Security	How can we, as designers, use human-centric techniques to reimagine the future of online security in a hybrid world, kindle trust in machines, and for digital good?

Final Solution

Choose one of the four areas above, identify a problem area, and create a solution that uses digital technology to solve the identified problem.
You need to demonstrate the ability to define the problem and the users crisply.
You should show us how you have uncovered not only the user’s context but also their needs, aspirations, and motivations.
Your problem area should be big enough to be impactful and be able to address all the aspects mentioned.
The solution may be near-term and practical, or long term and blue sky. But the final idea must be innovative, technically feasible, and have a realistic chance of adoption if implemented.
Your solution cannot be just a description of a concept. It needs to be tangible enough to be detailed, presented, discussed, and evaluated.
