"I am still overwhelmed with how lucky we are
to experience the 2022 Hilti IT Competition. Travelling to Malaysia
has given me the chance to meet wonderful people from all over the
world whose friendships I'll treasure forever! Hilti has truly gone
above and beyond to make this competition one of the most fulfilling
experiences of our lives. We received constant support from the
Hilti team as we developed our idea and this experience fostered
our team management, collaboration, leadership and communication
skills. On top of this, presenting on the stage with the magnificent
lighting and music was a dream come true (shoutout to the tech/sound

"The Hilti IT Competition series has always
been close to our hearts ever since we joined the 2018 series.
To all three of us, it was not just any event, but a journey.
When signing up for the competition, it was a chance for us to
test out our novel ideas when framed within the construction
industry and to discuss our ideas to those experienced. It was
also a chance for us to hone our presentation skills in front
of an audience. After the competition, it was the connections
that we made along the way, friends that we still keep in
touch up till this day."

with an amazing panel of judges, this competition also gives
you an opportunity to present in front of some great minds
from all around the world, which further challenges you to

"The Hilti IT Competition series has always
been close to our hearts, and an event that we keep ourselves
up to date ever since we joined the 2018 series. To all three

up for the competition and going through the semifinals - it was
a chance for us to test out our novel ideas when framed within
the construction industry. 2) When attending the finals- it was
a chance for us to discuss our ideas not only with people that
are well experienced within the industry, but also with other
participants as well. 3) During the presentation- It was a chance
for us to hone our presentation skills in front of an audience.
4) After the competition- it was the connections that we made
along the way, friends that we still keep in touch up till this
day."

"ITC 2018 was a memorable event for me.
The overall experience, from meeting other participants
from all around the world, to see how much effort committee
members put to make sure everything was perfect, getting a
better picture of Hilti… it was a blast.
I am surprised and delighted to see that each year ITC
committee is taking this event further than the previous
year. Even during the pandemic and lockdown, the committee
is able to adapt to the situation quite fast while
maintaining the high standard."
Loo Ji Yong

(Champion ITC 2017)
"Hilti IT Competition is more than a competition!
It is an eye-opening and rewarding journey - as a naïve university
student, it’s challenging for us to identify and understand in
depth on the potential challenges faced by the industry and came up
with an idea which is aligned with unique Hilti business model.
It was a good platform to showcase our skills and innovative idea
to one of the construction industry leaders.
Apart from the sponsored trip to travel to Europe, we also got the
opportunity to have a glance on the day-to-day operation across
different segment of IT areas. This indeed helps us in shaping
our career path. Most importantly, we were offered the opportunity
to start our career at Hilti IT Services.
Highly recommend for all the young talents to participate in the
Hilti IT Competition!"

"Being part of the winning team at the Hilti
ITC in 2016 is one of the best achievements of my career to
date. I didn’t only get an opportunity to travel to the
Headquarters in Schaan, but it also kickstarted my corporate
life after university. Working in various locations, including
Malaysia, Switzerland, and France over the last four years
has given me immense international exposure to different
cultures and ethics."

it wasn’t like any other competition. This one not only kick
started my career, Hilti also gave me the opportunity to
progress as an UX Designer professionally and personally.
4 years later today, I’m still doing something I enjoy everyday."
