Partner collaboration formats

Flexible ways to engage with the 42AI community.

Sponsor an event

Support a workshop, hackathon, or meetup. Get visibility, run challenges, and meet participants. We handle logistics and community outreach.

Provide a use-case or dataset

Share a real problem or anonymized dataset. Students and the AI Lab can build solutions, POCs, or research on top of it—with clear IP and confidentiality rules.

Mentor / office hours

Offer regular office hours or one-off talks. Guide learners on architecture, MLOps, or domain expertise. Low commitment, high impact.

Internship & recruiting pipeline

Connect with vetted students for internships or full-time roles. We can help match profiles and organise intro sessions.

Co-build an AI Lab project

Define a project with clear deliverables and timeline. The AI Lab team and students work on it with your input; outcomes can be open-source or internal.

Research collaboration

Partner on papers, benchmarks, or open-source research. Ideal for R&D teams looking to engage with the 42 AI community.

What collaborations can look like

Example scenarios (fictional, for illustration only).

Workshop + recruiting

A tech company sponsored a 2-day MLOps workshop and ran a small challenge. Three participants later joined their team as interns.

Dataset + AI Lab project

A bank provided an anonymised use-case; an AI Lab team built a proof-of-concept for document classification. The outcome was shared under NDA.

Mentorship + visibility

A consultancy offered monthly office hours on ML in production. They also gave a talk at our community meetup and strengthened their employer brand.
