Tokyo Tech scores first ever medal at ICPC finals

Student team tonosama has won a bronze medal at the 2023 International Collegiate Programming Contest (ICPC) World Finals, held in Luxor, Egypt from April 14 to 19. This is the first medal won by Tokyo Tech at the ICPC World Finals. Team tonosama finished tenth overall, a result which earned them a bronze medal.

The 2023 ICPC World Finals included both the 46th and 47th contests due to postponements caused by covid-19. Although some changes had to be made to the timing and location of the event due to the continuing conflict in the Gaza Strip, top programming teams were carefully chosen from around the world to participate.

Team tonosama was selected for the finals based on their performance in the Asia-Pacific regional championships held in December 2022. They answered eight out of eleven questions in the finals and received special mention for being the fastest team to answer the questions in the 47th contest. Team tonosama also won first place in the ICPC Challenge, a supplemental contest held in conjunction with the ICPC World Finals.
