The Open Data competition, organized by Egzakta Advisory and the Research and Development Center of the Faculty of Organizational Sciences, was completed on Thursday, December 22nd.
Participants had the opportunity to work on solutions based on open data over the past month and to present them to a panel of experts in two rounds of competition.
Team Tech9320, consisting of Branislav Stojanović, Uros Stanimirović, David Čuturilo, and Nikola Petrović, won first place and a prize of €4000. The winning solution, called Agroinvest, created by our team, was focused on agriculture, an area with great but underutilized potential in Serbia.
The competitors saw the importance of data in improving agriculture and created an informative portal that would provide farmers with access to high-quality, well-structured data on various aspects of the field in one place. One segment of the portal displays the movement of the price of arable land for different regions of Serbia - information that is crucial for someone who wants to buy an agricultural plot.
Another function of the portal is to display data on the movement of agricultural product prices for different regions and time periods. The portal would also have a display of the average incomes of various agricultural crops for all regions of Serbia.
Also, a very important function of the portal - it would also be an e-catalog on which users can easily compare the prices of producers and sellers of agricultural equipment, machinery, tools, and other inputs and choose the one that suits them best.
The idea was further developed and a way to implement such a project in reality was devised. The entire business plan was precisely defined, market research and competition analysis was carried out, a licensing plan was developed, as well as a marketing, communication, and other important segments.
We would like to congratulate all other participants, as well as the expert jury, mentors, and organizers who approached the realization of the entire competition program very professionally.
We look forward to further cooperation with the top people from the Egzakta Advisory team! 🎉
