This is your center stage.
A year of late nights, broken builds and breakthrough moments deserves more than a grade. Deep Minds 7 is your chance to present the work you're proud of to the people who can hire you, fund you, and tell you what to build next.
From build to recognition, in six steps.
Excellence isn't submitted — it's earned. Here's the path every team takes to the stage.
Build
Develop your graduation or course project through the year.
Apply
Submit your team, abstract, stack and demo before the deadline.
Evaluate
Faculty review submissions for readiness and fit.
Select
Accepted teams are confirmed a slot on the showcase floor.
Present
Demo live to visitors and an industry jury on the day.
Recognize
Winners are announced and archived across every domain.
Present once. Benefit for years.
A real audience
Demo to peers, faculty and visiting companies — not just a marking rubric. Your work gets seen by people who can change your trajectory.
Expert feedback
Industry jurors review your project and tell you what's strong, what's missing, and what they'd want to see in production.
Career momentum
Internship offers, interviews and introductions happen on the day. A strong showing at Deep Minds travels with you.
Recognition that lasts
Awards across every domain, archived publicly — a credential future employers can actually look up.
A portfolio piece
Your project page — stack, demo, screenshots, poster — becomes a shareable link you can put on your CV and LinkedIn.
Be part of the story
Deep Minds is built by students, for students. Present, volunteer or organise — and put your name on the seventh edition.
This is your launch, not your finish line.
Your graduation project is the most complete thing you've built. Deep Minds is where it stops being coursework and starts being a product story — judged by people who ship for a living.
- Headline award categories per domain
- Priority access to recruiter conversations
- A permanent project page in the showcase
A smaller project, the same big stage.
You don't need a graduation project to take part. Standout course projects are showcased alongside the rest — and it's the perfect low-stakes way to learn how to present and pitch.
- Dedicated course-project award track
- Feedback that levels up your next project
- First taste of presenting to industry
How to prepare a winning project.
Tell a problem story
Open with the real problem and who it hurts. Judges remember problems, not features.
Show, don't slide
Lead with a live demo or a short video. A working thing beats ten bullet points.
Own your stack
Be ready to defend your technical choices — and to say what you'd do differently.
Polish the poster
Clean visuals, a clear title and a QR to your demo make your booth impossible to walk past.
What a stage-worthy project looks like.
Four things the jury looks for. Hit them, and you're in genuine contention.
Innovation
A genuinely new angle — not a tutorial rebuilt. Show us the part that didn't exist before.
Quality
It runs. Clean code, sound architecture, and choices you can defend under questioning.
Impact
A real user and a real problem. Be able to say exactly who this helps and how much.
Presentation
A clear story and a live demo. The best project still has to be the easiest to understand.
Not presenting? Help run the show.
The Deep Minds crew is the reason the day runs smoothly — and it's one of the best ways to meet partners, build your network, and earn a line on your CV that says you can lead.
- Registration, floor management & partner hosting
- Media, photography & social coverage
- A certificate of participation for every volunteer
