Think Innovation Week at Université de Lorraine
CirCular eConomy & innovative plastiC reCyCling

Seven students of the EURECA-PRO alliance attended the Think Innovation Week which took place from 1st to 9th of July at Université de Lorraine.

This year’s theme, “Circular Economy and Innovative Plastic Recycling,” featured a dynamic event divided into three engaging workshops focused on patents, entrepreneurship, and innovation. Participants tackled three key objectives and challenges:

• 48 Hours to Revive Dormant Patents: Promote and activate patents that have not yet led to innovations.
• Business Model Design for an International Market: Test the IDEO method, which can be applied to any project, transforming an idea into a valuable opportunity for a new start-up or an existing company.
• Prototyping Your Ideas: Recognise the importance of creating an “intermediary object” in the development of innovative projects by utilizing the FabLab approach.

More than 50 students attended this event and used this excellent occasion to work together, to establish connection and to share innovative initiatives and ideas!
