Hilti IT Competition (ITC) is an annual IT competition to encourage students of all disciplines around the world to come up with innovative IT solutions to overcome challenges faced by the construction industry. As Hilti ITC approaches its 10-year anniversary, we can see that the ITC has come a long way in providing a platform for young talents to tackle these challenges with ingenious and modern solutions using mobile apps, communication and collaboration software, Big Data, the Internet of Things (IoT), augmented reality, and even remote working and collaborative inventions.
Adapting to the pandemic situation where travel restrictions were still applied during the time of the event, HILTI has decided to execute the event via hybrid method – virtually and physically. The live event was broadcasted to a virtual platform where attendees and judges who were not able to attend in-person will be able to take part seamlessly.
