B&R invites students to participate in the first pan-European university competition of its kind. B&R calls for innovative concepts, creative solutions, practice-oriented application suggestions and promising scientific research projects from all technical disciplines. The only requirement for your proposal is the usage of POWERLINK technology in form. For an optional practical implementation, the freely available open source software openPOWERLINK can be used as an ideal basis.

A high-profile jury of researchers and economic experts will assess all submitted projects and announce the award winners in mid-2009. The winners will be awarded three prizes worth 10,000, 5,000 and 2,500 Euro.
