NOC (Netherlands)
Winner Category Connecting CulturesNOC is a web platform that helps users meet people and make new friends. The concept builds on the strategy of using social media to empower real world interactions. By binding users to stay online longer every day, on average up to 50 days in a year, social media end up isolating and separating people in reality. Using NOC, people can organize group meet-ups based on shared interests or ‘NOC’ someone specific. The added value of this initiative is that it really offers an alternative, sociable, reason for meeting. The project benefits from great promotion and a community development strategy. Groups coming to new places for the first time and looking to make acquaintances – for instance international students and expats – will love NOC.
