The preparatory phase of the course started in January, when the participants were divided into teams of five based on a selection process, and had the opportunity to get to know each other remotely in the first online meetings. Officially, the course started with an introductory week in Prague, where students could meet their teammates and tutors in person.
After the opening at the Rector's Office, the students spent a day at the company for which they will be working on their project. In the following days, several theoretical lectures were held to prepare the students for the challenging task of bringing their projects to success; now the teams will start working on the project implementation plan. They will receive expert project management background and implementation advice from teachers from the partner universities as well as representatives of the cooperating companies
The work of the teams will then continue remotely and a final meeting will take place in Vilnius at the end of April, where the teams will present the results of their work. A jury of experts will judge the projects and the students will also learn whether and how companies will use their solutions.
Following companies cooperate with the project: Cofidis, Komerční banka, L´Oréal, Linet, RHEA and TOTAL Energies.
