The main goal of the event is to make visible the results of a problem- and project-based learning both from the point of view of the students, the teachers, research groups and companies - these are practical examples where the cooperation of different parties has made it possible to bring together real-life problems, science, entrepreneurship, various fields - in order to create a path for innovation and encourage more to take such a hands-on approach. And, of course, sustainability is the overarching theme.
