The challenge was to develop, in teams, a app/service/tool to help alleviate youth unemployment, within 12 hours. The prize? A trip to Dubai to present to a VC firm. Our solution involved creating a mobile app called 'Whats My Potential". WMP is an engaging App that makes its easy for young people to discover their employ-ability skills and to match these skills with current jobs and learning pathways. Once a young person has taken the app's simple aptitude test and linked their profile to their "learning log"*, mentors will be able to validate these skills and comment further. The end result will be a living, validated, dynamic, online CV which will then be linked to the learning pathways of the youth's selected career path, and/or to real-life jobs.

It is anticipated the proposed ontology will fill the gaps that currently exist within crisis-orientated ontologies specifically aimed at the response and recovery phase of the disaster lifecycle.
I worked with Conor extensively on a EU research project. The thing that struck me most about Conor, other than his great personality, was his ability to translate vague research ideas to solid and practical technical solutions. If we could dream it, he could create it! The ability to bridge the gap between researchers and IT, not only in conceptual thinking but in everyday communication as well, is something I greatly admire in Conor.
Conor is a diligent, hard working professional whose attention to detail and tenacity enables him to turn out excellent work on every project he works on. I highly recommend Conor for his IT knowledge, ability and dedication.
Conor has helped me with support on my web site several times. He's fast, effective, personable, and has a high level of expertise. After experiencing support from Conor, I feel no need to ever go anywhere else. I give Conor my highest possible recommendation. Outstanding.
“Conor Woods is the ultimate professional and is unrelenting in his client support and desire to make sure any job he works on is delivered on spec and on time. He follows a strict work methodology which means nothing is left to chance and his working knowledge of CSS & HTML is second to none. What truly impressed me about Conor was how he went well beyond the scope of my brief and over-delivered, much to my delight. I highly recommend Conor, no matter how big or small your job is.”
