Starship Enterprise

NZ has notched up its second consecutive win at the annual International Enterprise Olympics with an innovative touchy feely concept – ‘Sense’: a braille fastfood menu (“food from your fingertips”). The international event, organised by NASA, asked contestants to design a product which would improve the quality of life for the disabled members of their community. The winning team of NZ 16-18 year olds received a substantial cash prize, gold medallions from the Royal Bank of Scotland, and the chance to see their national flag flown in space.
