The programme will have two parts
A theoretical and a purely practical one.
☑️ Researchers and companies will briefly present their projects related to current challenges in technology, environment, health and other industries.
☑️ Students will then select a specific challenge and engage in a table discussion on how to turn the project into a viable commercial solution.
☑️ The students and the company/researcher will be joined by an experienced mentor who will advise them on how to keep their feet on the ground to ensure the ideas will stand up in the marketplace.
☑️ Reverse pitching doesn't stop there. Afterwards, students will also attend a three-day BOOTCAMP where they will work intensively on their solution.
