What is it like being the Tech talent of the year?

Last year Shekhar Devm Upadhyay was crowned as the Tech Student of the Year 2023, after having impressed the judges with his passion for machine learning and his take on how it can be applied to different areas of sustainability work. You can read more about his win and his experiences from the summer internship here!

 

 

The year before, winner of Tech talent of the year 2022 was Celine Helgesson Hallström. She describes her experience as the Tech Student of the Year:

 

“It’s been eight fantastic weeks. I especially appreciate the possibility to engage with so many different teams, in two different countries. The fact that I was able to decide for myself which areas and tasks I wanted to explore also appealed to me. I got to do a few interesting smaller tasks, in addition to one bigger, main assignment”, Celine says.
