Challenge@PoliTo_by Firms is an innovative teaching activity carried out at the Politecnico di Torino. It plays a vital role in the PoliTo's strategy to foster innovative education and entrepreneurial culture among students.
These activities are organized in collaboration with external firms, which present real life business challenges.
The primary objective of these activities is to provide support for early-stage ideas and equip students with the essential skills needed to develop their entrepreneurial ventures.
During this experience, up to 30 master’s students are divided into multidisciplinary teams and work, compete, and develop their own solutions.
The challenge take place in an experimental educational laboratory: the CLIK - Connection Lab & Innovation Kitchen, where students can experiment and practice what they have learned during their lectures in an informal and multidisciplinary environment which promotes the spirit of creativity and collaboration.
Challenge@PoliTo by Firms – Comune di Torino
Smart Urban Data Integration for Turin's Master Plan
The Topic
Nearly thirty years after the approval of the 1995 Town Master Plan, the city of Turin has started the process of developing and drafting the new Town Master Plan, the main planning tool for the municipal territory.
The master plan establishes rules, defines limits and outlines the future of areas already built and those to be developed or regenerated having an important strategic impact for the Turin of tomorrow.
The current master plan was approved in 1995 so working on a new Plan for Turin represents a fundamental opportunity to rethink the city in all its aspects: environment, society and economy.
The Challenge
The objective of the challenge is to develop a new strategy that allows the innovative use of urban data in the new master plan. Proposals may include applications, devices and tools aimed at:
• Analyze the databases of the City and develop strategies for the integration and use of urban data;
• Increase and update available databases to improve the knowledge of all dimensions of urban life;
• Make the master plan understandable externally;
• Visualize and compare alternative transformation scenarios through a multidimensional approach (e.g. ecosystem services; social impact...).

The main goal is to engage students in learning initiatives which can really bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge acquired in the university environment and the practical skills required by companies to work in a professional setting.
Entrepreneurial Culture: Promote the Entrepreneurial culture/behavior on the PoliTo Students.
Multidisciplinary Teams: Collaborate in a complex and multidisciplinary context.
Information research: Retrieval, Data collection and Utilization of information to support teamwork activities.
Hard Skills: Put into practice what they have learned during their lectures to solve a real problem from partner firms.
Soft Skills: Teamwork under conditions close to a genuine business environment, self-assessment and work organization.
By the end of this activity, students will be better equipped to work in a multidisciplinary team, a skill increasingly sought after, especially multinationals. Furthermore, they will be able to analyze industrial problems with a comprehensive approach, considering both technical and market aspects.

The Challenges of the second didactic period last 14 weeks; they start in February and end in June 2025. During the Challenges, students must work in multidisciplinary teams supported by a group of tutors, coming from PoliTo and external partners, with complementary backgrounds and competencies, under the lead of Professor P. Boccardo (DIST).
Each team will have the flexibility to self-organize its own working time and methodology. However, they will be required to spend approximately 1 hour and half per week with mentors, either in the CLIK Lab, a similar space or remotely, in addition to the joint alignment meetings (specified subsequently).

Each team will have the flexibility to self-organize its own working time and methodology. However, they will be required to spend approximately 1 hour and half per week with mentors, either in the CLIK Lab, a similar space or remotely, in addition to the joint alignment meetings (specified subsequently).
The activity will take place at CLIK (Connection Lab and Innovation Kitchen), located in the central building of the Politecnico di Torino (Corso Duca degli Abruzzi, 24), in a similar space or remotely, with the following schedule:
● Kick-Off & Team Formation (2 consecutive days): the partner company, professor in charge of the activity and tutors will hold a session on the Challenge's issues. Team Building and team formation also take place in this phase to establish multidisciplinary teams.
● Problem Analysis and Idea Creation: teams will have two weeks to analyze the problem in detail. A team of mentors will provide support through weekly meetings.
● Idea Presentation – 1st Work Progress: each team will present the problem and their proposed solution through a pitch. This will be a half day joint alignment meeting.
● Prototyping and Development: teams will meet weekly at CLIK (or similar space or remotely) together with mentors who will support their project's development. This phase will extend over 11 weeks of teamwork.
● Two Mid-Check Presentations – 2nd and 3rd Work Progress: two half-day joint alignment meetings will be dedicated to discussing the work progress during the Prototyping and Development phase.
● Final Presentation: at the end of the 14 weeks, teams will present their projects through a pitch. This will be a half day joint alignment meeting.
Every team will have the flexibility to self-organize its own working time and methodology. However, they will be required to spend approximately 1 hour and half per week with mentors, either in the CLIK Lab, a similar space or remotely.
The Teams, during the Challenge, must hand in the following deliverables:
• Three ppts Work Progress: Pitches to explain achieved outcomes and next steps of the project, during work progress meetings.
• One monthly report: a monthly report to describe achieved outcomes and next steps.
• One ppt Final Presentation: final pitch, during the final presentation, to present the whole work.
• One final report: a comprehensive final report on the entire project will be submitted. A standard form will be provided for this purpose.
Please note that the outlined structure serves as an example and may be subject to modifications throughout the course of the Challenge.
