The Arqus International Innovators Award is an online competition that recognises the most innovative and internationally oriented start-ups within the Arqus Alliance. Students, academics and professionals from Arqus universities have the opportunity to vote for their favourite!
And how does it work? Each university selects a team from its local programmes to take part in the European final. The selected finalists present their work in short video pitches. The pitches can be watched on the Arqus website.
Voting for the finalists' business models will be open from 6 to 20 October. The Graz-based start-up "Balu" is also taking part. A smart medicine dispenser was submitted. The winners will be announced on 22 October at the Start Cup Veneto in Padua. You can vote at this link.
About the award
The Arqus International Innovators Award is part of Arqus' initiatives aimed at identifying and supporting early-stage start-ups. The focus is particularly on those who are planning to internationalise their company.
The award enables start-ups to showcase their international business models and thereby gain visibility and new opportunities for networking and collaboration across Europe. Find out more about previous editions of the International Innovators Award at this link.
