Sigma Amazing Race at KTH – the beginning of an exciting IT career

If you are a member of the Royal Machine Chapter at KTH, you should make a mental note of Sigma. In part to become a winner in the Sigma Amazing Race on September 10 in Stockholm, but also to find out about one of Sweden’s top IT employers.

Sigma believes in the future, especially when it comes to the current generation of students, who will help shape a better tomorrow. This is why Sigma is deepening relations with KTH and several other universities and colleges. The goal is to increase integration between student life and working life, and to build relations with students who are looking for an employer like Sigma.

Get a jump start on your career
Sigma participates at career expos, arranges events such as Hackers’ Night, collaborates with students in degree projects and is committed to increasing equal opportunities in the IT industry. New for this year is Sigma’s sponsorship of a new event for this year’s traditional, good-natured hazing at KTH – the Sigma Amazing Race.

Eva Björkegren at Sigma Technology in Stockholm is the lead project manager for the event and is involved in several other collaborative activities with the universities in Stockholm.

“Creating relationships as early as the university years develops and inspires both the students and us at Sigma,” says Eva. “Being an attractive employer today and in the future is essential for us in remaining a world leader in technological development. We hope this new event will be fun for all but we obviously see the initiative as a chance for establishing early contacts. Who knows how many of these clever students will be among my new colleagues in a few years?”

About the Sigma Amazing Race
During the event on September 10, about 400 students will participate in a contest in which both older and new students join in carrying out assignments in downtown Stockholm. It starts at Lilljansskogen and finishes at Sigma’s office at Valhallavägen, with prize presentations and the opportunity to get to know your fellow students.
