Sopra Steria International Student Challenge: participate for a sustainable and responsible future
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has woven itself into every
aspect of our daily lives, unlocking endless possibilities. Now, it's your turn
to harness its potential and imagine ideas that could make the world a better
place—a world where AI is already revolutionizing healthcare, making education
more inclusive, driving the circular economy, and protecting our planet.
Starting on September 16, 2024, Sopra Steria invites you to
join the largest IT student challenge in Europe! Compete against participants
from 10 countries (Belgium, France, Spain, India, Italy, Luxembourg, Norway,
the Netherlands, Poland...) and propose concrete solutions using AI to create a
positive impact on tomorrow's world. Each project must align with one of the
four major themes of the competition: environment, society, economy, or
education.
Destination Madrid: compete for a chance to win up to €10,000 and kickstart your career!
The challenge is structured in two phases. First, students will compete in a local national final. The winning team from each country will earn the opportunity to represent their nation in the international final, flying to Madrid on March 4th, 2025.
In addition to the chance to win up to €10,000, participants can also look forward to exclusive training, personalized mentorship for a year, and much more.
