Innovact Campus Awards 2012: deadline Monday February 20

For ten years, the Innovact Campus Awards have, with the support of the European Commission, enabled young students to implement their projects at European level.

If you are a student with a creative and innovative idea for a business project, you can, with a team or individually, take part in the 10th edition of the Innovact Campus Award. The aim of this european competition is to reward new and challenging projects. Your project can either be in its design stage, in progress or already launched. All students can take part in the competition either individually or within the framework of their institution.

DEADLINE for receipt of completed application forms is Monday February 20, 2012

The selection committee composed of professionals (heads of companies, journalists, scientists) will reward the candidates who - whatever the product or activity - show imagination as creators. The first prize is 5,000 Euros, and the second and third prize is 1,500 Euros.

In order to encourage their projects, the finalist candidates will be invited to participate in the 16th edition of the European forum for innovative start-ups, Innovact 2012 (booth, transport and accommodation free) which takes place in Reims, on March 27 an 27 2012.
