The India AI Olympiad
What is IOAI and INAIO?
The International Olympiad in AI (IOAI) is the most prestigious annual competition in AI for high school students. The India AI Olympiad (INAIO) is being organized by ACM India in partnership with ACM IKDD to select the best young AI talent to compete on the global platform. Our vision is to make India AI-ready by fostering young talent and encouraging innovation in artificial intelligence among school students.
Why Participate?
Participating in both IOAI and the INAIO offers numerous benefits, including international recognition, scholarships, and opportunities for higher education. Many prestigious colleges and universities offer direct admissions to students who are selected for certified international Olympiads such as IMO and IOI, and this could potentially be the case with IOAI as well. This is a unique chance for students to showcase their talents, learn about cutting-edge technologies, and connect with like-minded individuals globally.
Eligibility
The INAIO is open to all school students across the country, from any school board. Any student registered in school up to Class 12 during the academic year 2024-2025 is eligible to take part. There is no lower age limit for participation. To participate, you must still be in school. If you have completed Class 12, you are no longer eligible, even if you have taken a break and are not enrolled in college, or if you are planning to redo your Class 12 exams for improvement.
Key Dates and Selection Process
Stage 1: Online test (2 hours) to assess problem-solving skills and AI basics. Registration: 20 Jan 2025. Test date: 25 Jan 2025.
