INSPIRE (9:30 – 10:45 CET)
We invite you to join us for the first session of our Social Innovation Through Knowledge Exchange Showcase. After an initial presentation of the SIKE project, we will invite thought leaders in the field of Social Innovation to present their work, and will also feature some of the international collaborative projects spawned from SIKE. The session culminates in a panel discussion followed by an audience Q&A. More here.

This session will feature five competition entrants from the UK, Germany, Portugal, Croatia and the Basque Country, who have made it through the initial stages of our “business plan competition with a difference”, pitching their idea to a panel of judges in order to get one step closer to a €2000 prize.
