on Thursday, July 10, 2025<\/strong> the time has come: the very first final of the ICD Student Award<\/strong>. In this exciting final round, three students pitch their innovative internship or graduation project to an expert jury and audience. The winner receives a unique trophy and a cash prize of \u20ac1.500,-<\/strong>. In addition, of course, eternal glory within the Innovatiecluster Drachten as the first winner of this Award!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A surprising introduction<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Perhaps this finale comes as a surprise to you as a reader - we understand that. In the run-up to this first edition, communication was deliberately kept relatively internal. This year's award had the character of a pilot, aimed at students doing internships or graduate research at one of the affiliated ICD companies. This allowed us to quietly test and optimize the format.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is how the first edition went<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The application period ran from\u00a0May 8 to 26<\/strong>. Students could compete by submitting a short video pitch of their project. At June 20<\/strong>\u00a0the three finalists have been announced. They will present their project live on July 10 in front of a professional jury and an audience of professionals, teachers, fellow students and family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Background<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Program<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The finals will take place at the\u00a0SKILL building on the grounds of Philips<\/strong>. Each finalist will have about 8 to 10 minutes to present his or her project, followed by questions from the judges and audience. A total of 15 minutes is reserved for each pitch. The jury consists of representatives from industry, academia and government.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2:45 - 3:00 p.m. | Walk-in
15:00 | Opening by Joost Krebbekx
3:15 p.m. | Introduction by Thom Verwater
The presentations, order:
- Lucia Kalkman - ASTRON<\/a>
- Thomas Jensma - Philips<\/a>
- Maurice Wijker - Batenburg Bones<\/a>
3:55 - 4:15 p.m. | Jury deliberations
16:15 | Presentation of the check by jury chairman Pieter van der Zwan
4:30 p.m. | Summer drinks<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The jury consists of:<\/strong>
\u2020 Pieter van der <\/a>Zwan<\/a> <\/a>(Smallingerland alderman)
\u2020 Cesar Mol <\/a>(Viventris<\/a>)
\u2020 Prof. B. Jayawardhana<\/a> (University of Groningen<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From 2026: ICD Student Award expands!<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The response is already enthusiastic, which is why we are proud to announce: the ICD Student Award will become an annual event<\/strong>! Indeed, starting in 2026, the award will be expanded. Then also MBO students<\/strong> compete with their internship or thesis project at one of the ICD partners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this way, we are building a stronger connection between education and innovation, and giving young technical talent from across the Northern Netherlands the stage they deserve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
