ICD Student Award 2026

After a successful pilot edition in 2025, there will be a 2026 edition, for University, college and MBO students!

The response to last edition has been enthusiastic, which is why we are proud to announce: the ICD Student Award will become an annual event! Indeed, starting in 2026, the award will be expanded. Then also MBO students compete with their internship or thesis project at one of the ICD partners. read here the article on previous edition

This ICD Student Award 2026, like the previous ones, starts with an application period. Students compete by submitting a short video pitch of their project. Subsequently, 3 finalists will be chosen through a vote. They will pitch their innovative internship or graduation project to an expert jury and audience during an exciting final round. The winner will receive a unique trophy and a cash prize. The 2nd and 3rd place finishers will also receive a cash prize this year! And of course eternal fame within the ICD as the winner of this Award!
