SSUGT students at the venture fair

A team of students from the Siberian State University of Geosystems and Technologies defended their project at a venture fair. In May 2024, as part of the conference "Youth, Innovation, Technology" at "Interexpo GEO-Siberia", as part of the project presentation competition, students spoke to experts from the Innovation Fund of the Novosibirsk Region. The students won 1st place and received a certificate for participation in the venture fair with a presentation of their project without a selection round.

The venture fair program consisted of several areas: a business program, an exhibition of innovative projects and networking. The business program was designed to discuss and analyze the main trends in the venture industry with an emphasis on regional experience and included discussion platforms, master classes, a competition of youth innovative projects and more.

An exhibition of innovative projects is an opportunity for innovative companies or students of higher educational institutions to demonstrate a product and a prototype to assess its potential and practical application.

- We prepared for the venture fair for three months, developed a presentation of a robot harvester in greenhouses. It was difficult to present, we were given only three minutes to speak. We talked to investors, in order to get into the trend, we need to finalize the project and apply to the venture fund. We were given a ticket to Business Accelerator A: START in the fall of 2024, which will be held in Akadempark, - said 4th-year student of the Information Systems and Technologies program Artem Udalov.
