Other events
OpenTech also hosts other events, where women and men in tech, developers, researchers, and start-ups come together to promote the best value proposition while highlighting inclusion, diversity, and open innovation.
Non-terrestrial and hybrid networks are central to Orange’s strategic plan, enhancing infrastructure and customer excellence. These advancements align with the New Space economy, where Orange seeks growth through open innovation with start-up and partnerships. Solutions must be innovative, commercially viable, and sustainable, supporting the Sustainable Development Goals. AI solutions should follow Orange’s ethical guidelines. Awarded participants will gain visibility at tech events, collaboration opportunities, and support from Orange Fab.
At Orange, we believe that gender diversity is a powerful driver of economic and social performance, as well as a source of innovation. Embedded at the heart of our strategy for nearly 20 years, gender equality between women and men is governed by dedicated governance and internal policies. This program has reached nearly 40,000 young girls and women worldwide. This policy results in an overall female representation rate in the company of nearly 36%, and about 25% in technical and digital professions.
My thesis in 3 minutes aims to make Orange’s research and innovation more accessible and attractive by popularizing the scientific word. To this end, a competition has been set up for 2nd and 3rd year PhD students at Orange Innovation. The competition encourages young researchers to present their work in a clear and attractive way, in order to arouse the interest of the general public and industry professionals.
The final of the competition will take place on November 27, and will feature 8 finalists selected for the quality and originality of their presentations.
- 8 finalists
- 2 jury prizes
- 1 public prize
A call for votes is online on the Futura Science website (French language). Everyone can choose and vote for their favorite candidate. The public prize will be announced at the same time as the 2 jury prizes.
The aim of the event is to enable participants to develop advanced solutions using standardized interfaces.
Participants will have the opportunity to work on a number of areas, including fraud prevention through APIs that enhance application security, and the implementation of location-based services such as geofencing and location verification. In addition, optimizing network quality will be a central issue, particularly for applications requiring low latency. Winners will benefit from coaching by Orange experts, meetings with executives and mentors, and much more at Orange OpenTech on November 28.
Prizes :
- 1st prize: Individual passes to Mobile World Congress 25 in Barcelona.
- 2nd prize: 3 individual passes to VivaTech 25.
- 3rd prize: 3 individual passes to APIDays 24 in Paris.
The winning teams will also have the opportunity to test their solutions in the Orange 5G laboratory, with the support of experts.
