INTRODUCTION

New York University Shanghai Digital Innovation Challenge (NYUSHDIC) is a tech-based innovation competition hosted by a student organization NYUSH Digital Innovation Community. Students from NYUSH and other universities are welcome to form cross-disciplinary teams, utilize cutting-edge digital technology, and pitch innovative ideas to address real-world problems. This year, the theme of the competition is AI Agent Unlock Business Innovation.

AI Agents, as one of the latest advances in artificial intelligence, are redefining how people interact with technology. They are intelligent systems that can perceive, reason, and act autonomously. Beyond executing human instructions, AI Agents are able to learn, adapt, and optimize, making them valuable tools for solving complex problems.

For this year’s challenge, under the theme AI Agent Unlock Business Innovation, participants will apply AI Agents to address practical business and social issues.

The competition will include several tracks composed of different fields, tentatively in the areas of Education, Mental Wellbeing, and Finance. Following the model from last year, each track will be supported by industry partners, faculty members or schools, who will set the problems, provide guidance, and conduct evaluations.
