How can you connect with IFSA’s promising talent?
- Give us a problem to solve. Each semester, groups of IFSA participants tackle prescribed assignments from local organizations. Their challenge is your opportunity to fix a technical issue, research a new opportunity, or approach a thorny problem in a new way. More than a time saver, their work is often an important step in exploring or developing a new product or process.
The Blindspot.AI challenge. Students developed a public-facing chatbot powered by state-of-the-art generative AI and large language models like ChatGPT. The system engages users in meaningful conversations, providing well-cited responses users can trace to original sources.
The Hexagon challenge. For this global provider of digital reality solutions, the group completed a technical and commercial analysis of technologies that enable non-destructive testing.
The Operator ICT challenge. For Prague’s IT subsidiary, the group explored how the city could implement AI and machine learning to increase efficiency, identifying needs, evaluating potential applications, and recommending a strategy.
The health-tech challenge. For local founders, participants developed an algorithm that used image recognition to detect a specific type of allergic reaction.
