4 March 2024
The Chair for Smart Industry, in collaboration with Comillas ICAI Initiabe on the Next Generation Industry, organised the VIII Hackathon for Intelligent Industry, entitled: "Passion for Chocolate".
Looking back, the chocolate sector has a historical presence in Spain, since the arrival of cocoa after the discovery of America. Therefore, during the Hackathon, a well-deserved tribute was paid to this raw material with the help of the company Chocolate Valor.
In the tournament, the teams competed by generating products, formats, brand images, designs, customisations, using Generative Artificial Intelligence techniques related to the main theme, the chocolate industry. For their transformative ideas and proposals, the team formed by Iván Judez, María Blanco and Jon Toledo, 1st year students of the Smart Industry master's degree, won the competition.
Undoubtedly, throughout the two days, the participants demonstrated their innovative skills, providing answers to the needs of the company in the current environment. In addition, the Master's Degree in Smart Industry was presented, a new horizon for our students to develop professionally.
