The youngest finalist competing against university students from across Europe!

Mariza Paspalli won first place in the finals of the European Women Programming Contest (EWPC), held in Stockholm, Sweden, from 21 to 24 August.

She was the youngest of all the finalists, most of whom were university students, yet she returned to Cyprus with the competition trophy.

The EWPC was established by the organisers of the ICPC, one of the world's leading programming competitions for university students. It is open to female school and university students from Europe, as well as those studying at European universities.

Mariza earned her place in the finals in Sweden, with all expenses covered, after finishing third among 460 contestants in the online qualifying round.
