Students will have the opportunity to meet with representatives from various companies as well as experts in future technologies from the third level sector, while the team with the best idea will receive a trip to Silicon Valley in California. 

Gillian Barry from LIT says today is an opportunity for young people to learn skills that will be needed across a variety of sectors.
