Innovation Academy is an entrepreneurship competition for teams of university students from across Bulgaria. This grant will support the eight edition of the annual 48-hour hackathon based on principles developed by the innovation department at Stanford d.school. University students submit their startup ideas several months prior to the competition. Afterward, the short-listed teams work on their projects with the help of mentors. Finally, they pitch their ideas in front of a jury consisting of respected scholars, entrepreneurs, and NGO leaders. The initiative is the largest public-private partnership of its kind uniting two European Union institutions (the European Investment Bank and EU Commission), 15 universities, and more than 30 representatives from the NGO, business, and media.

We are performing technical maintenance on our website and the project database will not be accessible until 4 pm today.
