The competition is hosted virtually and simultaneously around the world, and competitors are required to be proctored by a local IEEE member and are often supported by a local IEEE Student Branch. What makes IEEEXtreme unique? IEEEXtreme is one of the largest competitive programming events in the world; 5,500+ participating students in 2014 IEEEXtreme always aims to be a welcoming and international community; we are open to any college student that wishes to join IEEE and compete—no matter their level of expertise, location, or university affiliation. The quality of our competition is carefully cared for by hundreds of IEEE volunteers and our leadership team is one of IEEE’s most exemplary volunteer committees. Why sponsor? IEEEXtreme represents an excellent opportunity for recruitment, tech evangelism, and brand exposure.
