5th International Data Science Olympiad (IDSOL 2025)
Embedded Files
The International Data Science Olympiad (IDSOL) is an annual global competition challenging students and recent graduates to practically apply data science and artificial intelligence from first principles to real-world challenges, themed around the UN's Sustainable Development Goals.
Unlike a hackathon or case competition, students and schools bring their best cumulative work to the Olympiads, but many also start from scratch.
With hundreds of youth from dozens of countries expected to be represented across hundreds of academic institutions, IDSOL 2025 provides ample networking opportunities to forge friendships and make meaningful connections with a plethora of potential partners in government, NGO, and industry.
