#Students 2026
A launchpad for students
#Students is an international competition reserved for students and schools exploring VR/AR in their field of study or training. We are offering students and schools who have developed a project related to these technologies the opportunity to present it free of charge at the event. Innovative prototypes, interactive experiences, research projects, and new forms of immersive storytelling: this selection showcases the potential and boldness of a new generation already shaping the future of XR.
The winning team will have the opportunity to participate in IVRC!
