Art / Speech | Free Entry | Spring 2021

 The first AEC Foresee 2030 Competition has come to an end. More than 100 students from five countries and regions have submitted their amazing works that combine imagination and creativity with in-depth thinking.

Congratulations to the winners! And a big thank you to all the judges! Looking forward to our next year’s competition!

Theme: Foresee 2030

The year 2020 was fraught with difficulties: we have experienced the global spread of plague, wildfires in the northern and southern hemispheres, the fall of superstars, the rise of international tensions... Millions of us are disappointed with 2020. However, we also saw that in 2020, 5G technology was put into commercial use on a large scale, artificial intelligence and big data technology brought huge convenience to human beings from all aspects, civil forces represented by SpaceX was exploring the universe at an unprecedented speed, gene-editing technology is making it possible for human beings to get rid of the disease, and mankind is also united in the struggle against COVID19 and the research and development of vaccines. Countless people from all walks of life are moving forward and working tirelessly for a better world.

Therefore, we hope and firmly believe that in ten years from now to 2030, the world will undergo earth-shaking changes, whether in biotechnology or in the human environment, and human life will be more beautiful, vivid, interesting, and diverse, and we will go beyond the earth to roam the universe. And our students, as 12-19 years old teenagers, in 2030, will be the vigorous young generation. They are the pillar of the world at the time, 2030 will appear in their hands, but at this moment everything is built for them!
