“The competition took place during the Global Industries exhibition, during which well-known international companies demonstrated their developments and technologies,” - said Ivan. “Students of Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute enjoyed the opportunity to communicate with representatives of these companies, find partners, exchange coordinates and find support. To enter the competition, everyone had to go through several stages of selection from the Academy of Sciences and got the chance to represent Ukraine at the international level. Once the jury approved the scientific project, participants prepared documents and got ready for the competition. In general, the trip to Lyon was extremely amusing and useful. Besides the competition, we toured the city and museums.”
