TraC Guessing Game 2026!!

Fri, 10 Oct 2025

written by Tobias Vink

You might have guessed that such a message was coming. The TraC has been active again, we’ve had meetings and even a secret voting session to decide… the location of CognAC Study Trip 2026!!!

The TraC now, of course, knows where we’ll be going, but can you figure it out? Maybe there’s already a hint hidden somewhere in this document! The trip will have limited spots, and since it’s the CognAC Study Trip, they’ll probably fill up fast. However! You have a chance to claim one! Starting today, we’ll share multiple hints about our mystery destination. If you’re the first to guess correctly, you’ll get a guaranteed spot on the trip! So keep an eye on CognAC’s socials, emails, and the Board room for these exciting hints!

We will keep revealing hints up until the information session about the location on November 6th (more information about this will follow later).

For those who are new to the concept of the CognAC Study Trip: CognAC goes on a study trip every two years. On the trip (which will probably take place (partially) in the May break), we’ll visit AI-related companies and universities while also having great experiences in other parts of the city we are going to. You don’t want to miss this! Last study trip we went to Edinburgh, Scotland. Take a look at CognAC’s Instagram to see how that was!

If you think you know what destination those hints point to, you can make a guess on this link.

 Are you the first to guess it? Then you get a secured spot on the trip!

The following rules apply to this contest:

• Every member can fill in the form at most two times
• Your last guess counts. So if your first submission was right, but the second submission is wrong, you lose your spot.
• There are two spots reserved: one for a first-year AI bachelor student, and one for any other member or benefactor. This contest will thus have 2 winners.
• If you don’t want to use the Google form, please email your submissions to travel@svcognac.nl. Any other ways of submission will not be accepted.
• We will have an information session about the location on November 10th in the break. You can send in submissions until November 5th, 13:30
• The winners of this contest still need to pay for the trip :)

Have fun with figuring out the hints! Good luck<3

With love,

The TraC
