Ever since its inception, programming contests or hackathons have been translated into a means for accelerating innovation. Many refer to these events as the testbed for 'Moonshots' - the next disruptive way of solving perennial problems. 

International Collegiate Programming Contest (ICPC) is such a ground for cross-functional and cross-cultural collaboration. Since the 1970s, ICPC has been bolstering its efforts to nurture and develop top global talents who can contribute to global digital progress and social development.  

Understanding the true potential, Huawei has partnered up with this event as the 'ICPC Diamond World Finals Sponsor'. Huawei regards it as its duty to support and provide more opportunities to such talented professionals. 

Huawei's support of the global talent ecosystem started earlier and has always been its priority. For example, the company has been supporting the world's top contests such as ICPC, IMO, ICHO, IMC, etc. In this year's ICPC contest, Huawei has proposed high-quality world problems and challenges that will broaden the horizons of the participating students. 

Top brasses of Huawei, showing their full commitment, flocked to Bangladesh during the finals of ICPC 2022 here in Dhaka. While talking to the press during the inauguration, Vicky Zhang, Vice President of Huawei's Corporate Communications said, "Huawei is committed to creating opportunities for the next generation of problem solvers as they explore challenging subject areas that advance science and technology and propel the industry to meet the needs of tomorrow."

Zhang also said, "Together, we truly support the most competitive digital talent from over 100 countries as these bright minds are challenging some of the most cutting-edge problems from the real world."

In Bangladesh as well as across the world, Huawei has been committed to developing talent through various initiatives. 'Seed for the Future' is such a program that has been happening in Bangladesh for several years now. As digital talent cultivation becomes a key to empowering growth and resilience, the 'Seeds for the Future' program aims at inspiring the next generation of leaders through technological innovation and cross-cultural exchange.

ICPC 2022 has been a milestone achievement in the journey of making Bangladesh digital. To make it even more inclusive, brands like Huawei's commitment to nurturing and supporting talents can prepare Bangladesh for Vision 2041.
