INDUSHACK 2024: INNOVATION LOOKING AT THE FUTURE
With maximum participation, 60 students divided into teams of four faced three crucial challenges:
- Energy that lights the way: Innovation for a sustainable future.
- Cycles that reinvent the future: Innovation in materials and the Circular Economy.
- Health without Borders: Technology for universal access.
Throughout the day, the teams worked tirelessly to develop creative solutions to the challenges. Guided by mentors and representatives from partner companies, the future engineers were immersed in a collaborative and enriching learning process.
After intense rounds of evaluation, the best teams were selected to compete in the final. The excitement was palpable as the finalists presented their projects to an expert jury. In the end, recognition was given not only for technical excellence, but also for commitment to the Sustainable Development Goals and social impact. Prizes were awarded to the 3 finalist teams, 3 runners-up prizes and a prize for the team that best integrated the Sustainable Development Goals into their proposal.
At conclusion of HackIndus 2024, it was clear that this event was not only a celebration of engineering, but also a testament to the limitless potential of creativity and collaboration in a journey of discovery, learning and growth.
With the ZGR – UPV Chair as a catalyst, the students have shown that the future of engineering is in good hands and that together we can overcome any challenge that comes our way. Congratulations to the organisers and collaborators of the ETSII, as well as to the sponsoring companies, who have made this possible.
CHAIR ZGR – UPV IN POWER ELECTRONICS
This action is part of the programme of activities of the ZGR -UPV Chair in Power Electronics, which aims to promote research, training and technological development in the field of electronic engineering. ZGR is committed to bringing the technological innovation environment closer to the University and future engineers.
Internships in ZGR
Within the framework of this Chair, we promote teaching programmes, scholarships, awards, internships, workshops and University-Business meetings.
The research projects being developed are oriented towards their application in energy efficiency solutions for electrical equipment for industry, improving the productivity of solar inverters, advances in energy storage technologies, electrolysers for the development of renewable hydrogen and smart electric chargers for electric mobility, mainly.
