Technology Outlook, a biannual publication of the Swiss Academy of Engineering Sciences (SATW) informs their members in the technology industry about recent technological trends. To spark interest in hot tech topics and promote discussions, we chose, using SATW's tweet data: blockchain’s application in supply chain security, machine learning’s application in factchecking, and misinformation around 5G. We then transformed those topics into narratives in a social media posting format that would help increase public interest and knowledge. To gauge the interest from our posts, we interviewed university students and got their opinions on the sample posts created. We finalized our project by revising example content based on the feedback and creating an outlined recommendation for social media posting.
