sufficient measure of
holistic value of well-
being for individuals,
countries or the world.

20. To utilize emerging technology to improve
human well-being and drive positive social change.
25. Goal 1:
By March 20 2014, release
individual well-being
indicators (a personâs
âPersonal Happiness
Indicatorâ) based on each
person's own well-being
definition.
26. REAL - TIME
We aren't just collecting
data once from
individuals. We're creating
a living, growing, real-time
global well-being
indicator. Once the survey
is done, mobile phones
keep collecting data and
providing well-being metrics
for every person who has
taken the survey.
Users can see the changing
well-being scores without
taking further surveys.
46. What Your Group Needs to Create in the next 30-45 Minutes:
Please come up with a solution to help citizens of Eudaimonia achieve a
higher level of well-being based on the fictional Happiness Indicators
provided. You can do this in a few different ways:
⢠Create an App
⢠Create a Marketing or other Awareness Building Campaign

47. Sample App Idea
Citizens of Eudaimonia will create wearable-sensor clothing
for employees to analyze when theyâre happiest at work.
Fabric will change colors based on mood so people can be
more sensitive to their colleagues and increase productivity.

48. Sample Marketing Campaign Idea
âThe Thank You! Campaignâ â
Citizens of Eudaimonia are assigned 25 people in one day they try to thank for
something theyâve done. Each person who is thanked is asked to wear a fitbit or
biometric sensor that will show their increased (positive) heartrate. The improvement
in health over the course of one month will be mapped, as well as the correlation of
data around health insurance rates being lowered. Local employers will be able to
charge less for insurance and have more money to hire more employees.
