The event – held across an area of more than 100,000 square meters – was a total success and attended by over 120,000 visitors.

The eight apprentices are all members of the UBS Championship Class. This group was created in 2018, following the successful participation of then UBS apprentices Philipp Schmid and Janis Marty. The program was created to provide additional support to talented trainees and to prepare them for the competitions. The Championship Class currently includes 15 apprentices from the fields of application development and, more recently, the field of media and communications.
