What happened
in 2023
In its second edition, Pixel brought together 60+ participants, including teams, mentors, and experienced jury members specializing in UX/UI Design, Product Management, Business Analysis, and digital transformation.
12 teams, split between remote and on-site, engaged in a 24-hour challenge. Their task? To craft innovative, inclusive solutions using generative AI, focusing on enhancing accessibility for underrepresented social groups.
The event garnered support from the European Commission, Cargus, and Women in Tech Romania, all aiming to enhance their community services.
The European Commission challenged participants to create innovative digital solutions that tackle web accessibility, information reliability, multilingualism, and tailored content to foster a safe, inclusive digital era.
Cargus aimed to expand services while embracing inclusivity and customer-centric values, focusing on adapting features for the visually impaired, addressing the needs of illiterate individuals, aiding immigrants, and simplifying services for the digitally hesitant.
Five winning teams were awarded over 10,000 euros. Notably, the “Chase the Status” team designed an adaptive technology for package delivery, empowering the underprivileged and elderly with user-friendly AI capabilities using generative AI, focusing on enhancing accessibility for underrepresented social groups.
