WINNERS!

Salesforce-Eccles Chatbot Ideathon Challenge 2022

We had the opportunity to experience the energy, excitement, knowledge, and passion our students have for technology and problem solving at this year’s Salesforce-Eccles Chatbot Ideathon Challenge held at the David Eccles School of Business. A total of 40 students comprising of 13 teams competed in the Ideathon Challenge from Sept. 8 to 16. This event was in partnership with Salesforce, EigenX, Kahlert Initiative on Technology, Pepsi, the Campus Store, and the Information Systems Program at the Eccles School. Student teams created chatbots using the Salesforce platform to solve a real-world problem for the Office of Equal Opportunity at the University of Utah. This event brought together students and industry leaders in helping students learn valuable industry skills and provide networking opportunities with prospective employers. Great job students and congratulations!
