They can reach new people for lunch, study, or a game of Quidditch instantly, as Bump finds friends by just about any criteria you like. These include degree, subjects, interests and more. If you don’t know anyone in your class, are missing group sport, or maybe your problem is just that none of your friends like Hip-Hop and ramen, then bump can help you out.Team: Benjamin Lim, Casey Ng, Thomas Bevan, Saheed Ademola AmuniMentor: Daniel Williamson

Will is a filter that operates across iPhone, Android, Mac and Windows. When it detects that the user is aimlessly scrolling through a list of sites deemed to be unproductive or time-wasting, it gently interrupts the user and makes them conscious of their current browsing habits. Will is different from ordinary filters as it doesn’t solely rely on a predetermined black list, but examines websites and apps in real time on the basis of their content.Team: Conway Ying, Bill DengMentor: David Auton
