Throughout the week, you will work in close contact with the companies to form and refine the solution to provide the best quality output. On the final day, senior representatives from the companies and external experts will form a jury, to discuss and evaluate your final pitches.

Collaborate with smart, outstanding European Students


Join our Network of students and graduates from leading Grandes Ecoles and universities in Europe. Our AI Summer Challenge brings together 30 - 50 top European young STEM talents allowing an intensiv action learning based format.

As we transition into the AI era, leadership is increasingly defined by the ability to integrate and leverage AI technologies. Today’s leaders must be agile, adaptable, and equipped with a deep understanding of AI to make informed, data-driven decisions. Ethical responsibility and effective collaboration between humans and machines are also essential for navigating this evolving landscape.

To address these challenges, the Collège has developed a specialized AI Summer Challenge exclusively for engineers and scientists. The program is designed to provide you with the insights and tools needed to harness AI’s potential and drive innovation.
