Camden STEAM: The Competitive Edge: Outsmarting the Competition at AutogenAI (Camden Students Only)

This opportunity is available exclusively to students attending school in Camden.

Welcome to AutogenAI, where we believe that the future of business lies in combining human creativity with the power of Artificial Intelligence (AI). For this week’s challenge, students will step into the shoes of a strategic team tasked with helping AutogenAI rise above the competition in a rapidly growing AI industry.

AutogenAI has been a pioneer in AI-powered bid and proposal writing, but as the tech world evolves, so does our competitive landscape. We now face new rivals, and we need sharp minds to help us stay ahead. How do we continue to lead? How do we stand out? And how do we attract the right customers in an increasingly crowded market?

That’s where you come in.

The Challenge

Over the course of one week, you’ll work in a team as innovation consultants, to Identify and analyse our competitors, understand how our Sales and Marketing teams currently attract customers, and create bold, creative strategies to help us differentiate and grow. This is a chance to explore the business world, sharpen your critical thinking, and gain insight into how top tech companies stay ahead.

You’ll be equipped with everything you need - business context, sales insights, real team time, workshops, and mentorship. Then, on Friday, you’ll pitch your ideas to a panel of AutogenAI team members - just like a real consulting pitch!

·      Competitive Analysis & Market Research: Who are our competitors? What are their strengths? What gaps can we fill?
