    European WaterCampus Business Challenge 2024

    Join the European WaterCampus Business Challenge 2024! The European WaterCampus Business Challenge (EWCBC) 2024 is scheduled to take place from May 13 to May 17, 2024 and is a part of the Water4All project. Throughout this week, participants will have the opportunity to connect with peers, engage with innovative companies, and present pitches to potential investors, launching customers, and technology partners. Previous editions of the European WCBC have led to numerous success stories, with nearly all companies from the past 12 editions still actively thriving in the water industry. In this upcoming edition, we extend invitations to startups and PhD candidates across Europe who harbor entrepreneurial aspirations, aiming to catalyze significant ripple effects and foster mutually beneficial collaborations.
      2023 Participant: “The organisation of the event is on a very high level. I think I will never be in the same room with so many CEOs again. CEOs that are really there to help you improving your business case. Thanks for an amazing week!”
    The program brings together the expertise of (young) entrepreneurs, mentors, investors, and forward-thinking corporations to translate newly developed technologies into commercial triumphs. The European WCBC offers a comprehensive 5-day training platform for talented entrepreneurs, equipping them with the skills to transform innovative ideas into successful international ventures. On the final day, participants will present their business plans to a panel of water technology experts and investors. Selection criteria emphasize candidates' innovation potential, commitment to sustainability, and readiness for market penetration. Those chosen stand poised to emerge as global leaders in their respective domains.
