The TEC WEEK 1.0 event is the fruit of collaboration between the four Student Branch Chapters SSCS\, PES\, AESS\, and CASS of the IEEE National Engineering School of Sfax (ENIS). This week-long event was a unique blend of technical workshops\, hands-on challenges\, and engaging discussions a imed at pushing the boundaries of current space-based technologies.\n\nTEC WEEK 1.0 hosted over 120 participants from across Tunisia\, ranging from undergraduate students to seasoned professionals. The event featured three online sessions that kicked off the week\, with experts sharing insights into space exploration\, energy in space\, and satellite communications. T hese sessions laid the foundation for the in-person hackathon and workshop s that followed\, providing the necessary context for participants to dive deeper into the challenges of space technology. The main event\, which to ok place on September 21-22\, was organized in Monastir at the Mouradi Ska nes Hotel\, Tunisia\, where participants gathered for two full days of act ivities. The event’s highlight was a competitive hackathon focused on sp ace debris management\, an increasingly critical issue as more satellites and equipment crowd Earth’s orbits. Teams were tasked with developing in novative solutions to manage\, reduce\, or repurpose space debris in a way that supports long-term sustainability in space exploration.\n\nTEC WEEK 1.0 was honored to feature high-quality speakers who are leaders in their respective fields. Ms. Rania Toukebri\, a space technology expert from Air bus Defence and Space in Germany\, led a session on the future of space in novation and space debris management techniques. Mr. Matthew Johnston\, fr om the United States\, delivered an inspiring CASS Distinguished Lecture o n self-powered circuits and systems. Mr. Mohamed Ali Zormati\, from Orange Digital Center\, spoke about Orange ODC and the opportunities it provides for collaboration and innovation. Mr. Sedki Amor\, an engineer from IMEC\ , guided participants through the latest innovations in space electronics\ , from CMOS blocks to advanced ASICs. These sessions provided valuable ins ights and knowledge that helped teams refine their hackathon projects.\n\n Monastir\, Monastir\, Tunisia LOCATION:Monastir\, Monastir\, Tunisia ORGANIZER:hendbelkhiria@ieee.org SEQUENCE:35 SUMMARY:TEC WEEK 1.0: The Tunisian Engineering Congress Week 1.0 URL;VALUE=URI:https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/415827 X-ALT-DESC:Description: <br /><table style="border-collapse: collapse\; wid th: 99.9808%\; border-width: 0px\;" border="1"><colgroup><col style="width : 52.1483%\;"><col style="width: 47.8712%\;"></colgroup>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n< td style="border-width: 0px\;">\n<p>From <strong>September 17</strong> to <strong>22\, 2024\,</strong> the much-anticipated <span style="color: rgb( 224\, 62\, 45)\;"><strong>The Tunisian Engineering Congress Week 1.0</stro ng> - <strong>TEC Week 1.0</strong> -</span> brought together a diverse gr oup of <strong>innovators</strong>\, <strong>students</strong>\, and <stro ng>industry professionals</strong> to tackle some of the most pressing cha llenges in aerospace\, energy\, and electronics. <span style="color: rgb(1 32\, 63\, 161)\;"><strong>The TEC WEEK 1.0</strong></span> event is the fr uit of collaboration between the four Student Branch Chapters <span style= "color: rgb(224\, 62\, 45)\;"><strong>SSCS\,</strong></span> <span style=" color: rgb(45\, 194\, 107)\;"><strong>PES\,</strong></span><strong><span s tyle="color: rgb(53\, 152\, 219)\;"> AESS\,</span></strong> and <strong><s pan style="color: rgb(45\, 194\, 107)\;">CASS</span></strong> of the <stro ng>IEEE National Engineering School of Sfax (ENIS)</strong>.
