Thursday, 14 November 2024 was held in the atmosphere of the 11th season of the MERKUR PerFEKT Challenge competition for high school teams. This year, an incredible 52 student teams from 28 high schools across the Czech Republic participated. Like every year, this year was no exception: mostly four-person teams were divided into nine groups according to their assignments, with a winner emerging from each assignment to proceed to the superfinals.
A variety of interesting and imaginative solutions were created during the competition day. For example, students built a working model of a wind turbine, controlled a car using a muscle or built an automated waste sorting station.
We would like to thank all the competitors once again for the perfect atmosphere, perseverance and enthusiasm. We hope you enjoyed it and that we will see you again!
