T Challenge 2025

The T Challenge is our stage to recognize pioneering solutions and award outstanding innovators with a broad network full of opportunities. This year, our focus is on harnessing artificial intelligence to transform telecommunications networks and revolutionize the customer experience. We invite researchers, developers, and startups to share their visions for intelligent networks and enhanced customer experiences, elevated by the power of AI.

Ideas have the power to change the world forever. Thoughts that are born inside genius minds can be truly mind-blowing and deserve all the attention in the world. But here’s the twist: if these ideas are not shared, they lose all their power.

That’s why T-Mobile US and Deutsche Telekom want to make sure great ideas are seen and heard. We set the stage for the greatest talent, brightest minds, and most creative visions, and transform them into real game-changers – by working on them, re-thinking them, and further developing them with a network of experts in the middle of the spotlight.

The T Challenge is our stage to award innovators with the most precious thing we have to offer: an infinite network of opportunities. Because that’s what great ideas deserve.

Are you ready? Then step up to the global stage to present your vision, amplify your positive impact, celebrate your passion for tech and benefit from long-term business opportunities.
