The competition was conceptualized to encourage innovators with imagination and strong design ethics to take the next step in making a pipeline idea a reality. This year’s challenge has evolved into a fully-fledged accelerator programme that includes an entrepreneurship and growth hacking curriculum delivered by international trainers.

In September a workshop on Disciplined Entrepreneurship was spearheaded by Marius Ursache (Teaching Fellow, MIT Global Entrepreneurship Bootcamp). In November, Growth Tribe, Europe’s first growth hacking academy will conduct another training session.
