The Economic Times: Microsoft’s ‘Oneweek’ throws up student kits

An educational application called Treefinder, identifying the use of foreign languages and references in books or online platforms through Curiosity Cat, and learning aids from StuddyBuddy—these are some of the innovative applications Microsoft employees have come up with for students in a week-long ‘Oneweek’ hackathon, held recently across Microsoft at 114 locations globally. Micro¬soft CEO Satya Nadella described ‘Oneweek’ as an effort to reinvent the way the company does business and encourage the rise of brilliant ideas regardless of its origins.
