The Capgemini Super Techies Show asks participants to solve real business problems with innovative technology solutions. In previous years, the show was open solely to entrants from India, then to those from North America. This year, for the first time, countries around the world have had the opportunity to submit a university “team” of two people to compete in the TV series.

What's it all about?

We are looking for a team of two talented university students to represent the UK in the Capgemini Super Techies Show. Our successful UK entrants will be invited to take an "all expenses paid" trip to India in the autumn, and will compete against teams from around the world to solve real-life business problems using their technical skills.

What will I have?

You'll have a passion for technology, and an enthusiastic ability to use it in innovative ways to solve business problems.

How do I get involved?
To get involved, you'll need to visit our UK Capgemini Super Techies Show website, complete the registration process by inviting a team member, and forming a team. Once your team is formed, we will email a case study to you. The case study showcases a business problem which can be solved using technology. We’ll ask you to submit a short slide deck (four slides) to summarise your solution by the 25th June. The top teams will be invited to a UK final on the 18th July in London, where you will present your solution to our panel of expert judges. The UK Super Techies winning team will head off on an "all expenses paid" trip to India to compete in the televised semi-final of the competition at the end of September. The final is due to be held in Paris (another opportunity for an "all expenses paid" trip!) in October.

What's in it for me?
Well, apart from the opportunity to have something REALLY different on your CV, to apply your skills to a real-life business problem, to travel for free to India and then Paris, there's also a substantial cash prize on offer for the overall winners of the challenge... So - what are you waiting for?
