POLI HACK DAYS

POLI HACK DAYS 2024 is designed to catalyze the creativity, ideas, and teamwork of participants. Participants are immersed in a stimulating environment that promotes collaboration and knowledge exchange among researchers (Rtd-A) from different scientific backgrounds, encouraging them to showcase their problem-solving skills and generate innovative solutions to complex problems in line with the goals of the rectoral mandate program and in full coordination with all Departments. 

Participants, divided into teams, from h 14:00 on October 4th to h 19:00 on October 5th, have developed a project proposal on themes reflecting the priority areas involving the research activities of companies, public entities, and the community, and presented it through a 10-minute pitch.

The proposals presented by the teams have been evaluated by all participants, and five of them have been selected for the final. These groups will have an additional two weeks to develop the feasibility study of their project. A panel of expert reviewers will evaluate the proposals and select the three projects that will be funded up to a maximum of 24,000 euros each.

The award ceremony at the Energy Center of the Politecnico di Torino took place on 15 November at 4 p.m. in the presence of the Magnifico Rettore Prof. Stefano Corgnati and the Vice Rector for Communication Prof. Silvia Barbero.

The Evaluating Committee, formed by Dr. Anna Amati (EUREKA), Dr. Paolo Mulassano (Fondazione San Paolo) and Dr. Guido Panizza (LIFTT) decreed the three winners: 

The winning TEAMs will receive POLITO funding to implement the project for the next 6 months.
