BRICS Expert Council-Russia organises HSE CS × BRICS Ideathon

On November 9, HSE University hosted the HSE CS × BRICS Ideathon, a large-scale intensive programme for students designed to build their project skills and find solutions to current BRICS challenges. Supported by the BRICS Expert Council-Russia, the event was part of a broader effort to foster youth initiatives and expand educational cooperation within the BRICS framework.

The Ideathon gathered 🕊🕊🕊 participants, who formed 🕊🕊 teams to conceptualise and create prototypes of solutions to promote sustainable and technological development of the BRICS nations—all within a single day. Following a short introduction to the BRICS philosophy, students took part in a series of workshops.

After teams received their case assignments, the most intensive phase began: project development. For four hours, participants worked alongside mentors to develop solutions across diverse fields—from digital platforms to sustainable development.

The HSE CS x BRICS Ideathon once again demonstrated that creativity, knowledge, and teamwork can spark new initiatives that strengthen cooperation among the #BRICS nations and help build a more open, sustainable, and equitable world.
