At an official ceremony held on 07.02.2023 at Sofia Event Space 2020, Huawei Technologies Bulgaria honored students and PhD students from all over the country. The young people are finalists of the Huawei ICT Talents Training Seeds for the Future scholarship programme and were selected by a specially formed jury based on the short videos they submitted on topics related to new information and communication technologies (ICT).
Among the official guests of the event was the Vice President of BAS, Corr. Mem. Evdokia Pasheva, who delivered a welcoming speech. Five PhD students from BAS were honored: Zhan Zhelev, Plamen Petkov, Iskren Ivanov, Vesela Georgieva and Miroslav Marinov. The awards were presented by Corr. Mem. Margenov, Director of IICT-BAS and member of the jury.
In conjunction with this scholarship programme, last October the Career Center at the PhD Training Centre of BAS organised a webinar on “Opportunities for Scholarships and Career Development for PhD Students from Huawei “. During the webinar, a team from Huawei Technologies Bulgaria, headed by General Manager Mr. Terry Li, presented to the PhD students and young scientists of BAS, the ICT Talents Training SFTF Scholarship Programme and the Seeds for the Future Global Programme. The programmes aim to highlight the best and motivated ICT talents and provide them with new opportunities for development. The HUAWEI experts explained in detail the application procedure as well as the subsequent stages through which interested PhD students with an interest in ICT go through.
