This mega event aims to promote coding education among the youth and encourage students to develop programming potentials. All participants will receive a series of FREE special coding training on Minecraft platform. With the skillset, participants can build their own assigned parts of the futuristic Smart City map from January to March 2015. On 9 April 2015, 1,000 selected participants will meet at the IT Fest opening ceremony at Central Harbourfront to finish their last bit of coding, where we will aggregate all completed parts into a giant digital Smart City for the public to see and witness the setting of a new World Record!
