The contest was co-hosted by four academic societies, including the Korea Society of Management Information Systems and the Korea Society of Internet Electronic Commerce, as well as Younglimwon Soft Lab. It was held as part of the '2025 Spring Integrated Conference of Management Information-Related Societies' at KAIST Munji Campus.

A total of six teams from across the country made it to the finals of this contest, and Dong-A University was the only university to have two teams advance simultaneously, both of which won the Grand Prize.

The 'TapWork' team (Park Seoyeon, Cho Eunsu, Choo Yeji) presented 'TapWork,' an AI-based real-time collaboration optimization system. This system analyzes collaboration bottlenecks and features an AI that recommends optimal collaboration partners.

The 'Olsinipwoneodu' team (Kim Yeonwoo, Eun Dahye, Hwang Nayoon) developed the 'On;board' app, which supports digital onboarding for new employees, and a chatbot dedicated to ERP. The app focuses on systematizing knowledge transfer by serving as an in-company business encyclopedia.

The students prepared for the project through the research credit system and the challenge semester system, under the guidance of Professor Choi Hanbyeol.

Student Choo Yeji said, "TapWork is not just a collaboration tool, but an AI partner that designs real-time collaboration based on data. The time spent rethinking the standards for digital collaboration has become a valuable asset."

Student Hwang Nayoon said, "Although this was my first time participating in a contest, I was able to prepare diligently in a free-spirited atmosphere with my teammates. Thanks to Professor Choi Hanbyeol's meticulous guidance, we were able to receive this major award."
