The University of Colombo School of Computing’s (UCSC) team, consisting Adeepa Bndara and Dushanee Gmage, two second-year Information Systems students won the National Championship at the Unilever Challenge 2022. The team will now represent Sri Lanka at the Global Championship in London, taking place in June 2023.
The Unilever Future Leaders’ League (UFLL) is an annual competition that provides university students from all over the world with the opportunity to work on real-world business challenges and develop their leadership, teamwork, and problem-solving skills. In Sri Lanka, the Unilever Challenge (UC) is the National Level competition and is a critical part of the FLL program that helps to choose and prepare promising students for the global competition.
The Unilever challenge involves multiple rounds spanning up to 6 months where teams get several case studies and develop innovative and sustainable solutions to a business challenge provided by Unilever and are judged based on their analysis, creativity, and presentation skills. The winning team from the national-level competition represents Sri Lanka at the UFLL, where they compete against teams from other countries in several rounds to present their solutions to a panel of judges.
We congratulate Adeepa Bandara and Dushanee Gamage on their outstanding performance at the Unilever Challenge 2022 and wish them the best of luck as they prepare to represent Sri Lanka at the Global Championship in London.
