“S paní Jirákovou byla radost spolupracovat. Na konzultace chodila připravená a poctivě plnila jednotlivé úkoly, které našim klientům pravidelně zadáváme v průběhu konzultačního procesu.

Na začátku spolupráce mi paní Jiráková říkala, že rozjezd jejího podnikání je závislý na spuštění jejího webu. S tímto názorem se setkáváme úplně běžně, takže velmi často musíme vysvětlovat, že alfou a omegou každého podnikání jsou samozřejmě zákazníci. Bez nich se nikdy nic nerozjede. Paní Jiráková to velmi rychle pochopila, takže jsme společně začali pracovat na obchodní strategii za účelem akvizice prvních zákazníků.

Upřímně když mi s úsměvem od ucha k uchu vyprávěla o prvních klientech, a hlavně o prvních zaplacených fakturách, tak jsem to samozřejmě prožíval s ní. To je smysl P-PINK – pomáhat lidem, kteří chtějí pomoc a jsou schopni pomoc příjmout.”

AI Scholarship program has officially started – students selected, kick-off in September!

Our scholarship students will receive support of up to CZK 450,000, take part in expert internships, work on real-world projects, and join the team helping to grow the Innovation Center of the Pardubice Region (IC Pk). Follow their journey – and maybe next year, you’ll be one of them!

Meet our scholarship students!

On Tuesday, July 29, 2025, four students came to P‑PINK to meet each other for the first time. They were selected for a special two-year scholarship focused on Artificial Intelligence and Data Science. Out of 24 students who applied, four were chosen: Tobias Hočevar (FIM UHK), Tereza Všetečková (FES UPCE), Josef Bálek (MFF UK) and Robin Polák (FIM UHK). Robin is currently studying at a summer school in Taiwan, so he joined the meeting online.

The official start of the Scholarship program is in September, but we already made the first step – the group met, talked about what’s coming next, and got ready to begin working together.

The meeting was led by Karolína Šulcová, the Scholarship program manager who will help and support the students during the whole program. Jiří Janků, the director of P‑PINK, also joined and wished the students good luck and success.

Each student got their own AI Starter Pack – a set of useful materials to help them start learning before the program begins.

What’s next for our students?

The official launch of the program is set for September, but our future AI experts are already getting started. In August, they’ll dive into the AI Starter Pack – a solid introduction to key trends, technologies, and first practical tasks.


In September, they’ll meet again for the official kick-off, and from October onward, they’ll begin working on their own projects, get one-on-one mentoring, and join more expert-led courses.

November will bring an AI Hackathon at the University of Pardubice, and in December, you’ll be able to meet them in person at SHOWFERENCE in Litomyšl.
