Innovation Challenge Retrospective

Explore our previous editions and some exciting ideas!
Take a stroll down memory lane with Nagarro's Innovation Challenges over the years – where great ideas turn into real-world solutions.

What's the Innovation Challenge all about?

We invite companies across Austria to share their most exciting ideas on how to make things better using technology. It's a chance to turn "Wouldn't it be cool if..." into "Look what we made happen!" – That's because the winners of the Innovation Challenge will receive a tangible realitycheck of their digitalization idea worth up to € 50,000.

We launched the Innovation Challenge back in 2022, together with Google Cloud as our exclusive sponsoring partner, to foster the spirit of innovation and digital transformation in Austria. Since then, companies from a wide range of industries have taken advantage of this unique opportunity every year to get their ideas off the ground. And the next opportunity is just around the corner: Submit your idea for the Innovation Challenge 2024!

The Winners 2023

A group of people showing from voogle

First:
Wiener Städtische


"voogle"

The customized search engine that delivers really useful results. Who doesn't know this... the search leads to a multitude of hits with a lot of irrelevant information. Sifting through them costs time and nerves. This is where Voogle offers the solution, as an AI-supported information platform for Wiener Städtische customers and employees. All insurance data and correspondence is searched and combined, with the required results being displayed within seconds.

"ENOX.energy"

The goal is to provide customers with a simple path to the energy transition for a conscious use of networked energy for our world of tomorrow. A platform that enables different target groups, tenants as well as home owners, to become part of the decentralized energy production as well as energy optimization.
Team from Nagarro and FlughafenWien

Third:
Flughafen Wien


"BagPredictML"

Passengers at Vienna Airport should be provided with an accurate preview of when they can expect to receive their flight's luggage when they arrive at the baggage claim hall. This provides certainty regarding waiting time and reassurance, which significantly improves the customer experience. Machine learning will be used to develop a model for the forecast that knows and incorporates all influencing factors.
