The IOAI Global AI Talent Empowerment (GAITE) initiative is designed to assist countries and territories with limited International Science Olympiads (ISO) history as they work towards joining the IOAI community on an equal footing.
Goals:

- Attract additional international partners.
Format:
- Align closely with the standard IOAI format, including team structure, timing, length, and topics, to prepare national teams for eventual transition; special syllabus for GAITE; help with the national selection process
- Provide a training ground that is less challenging than the standard IOAI format to facilitate preparation.
