The Valencian Institute of Business Competitiveness (IVACE) and Startup Europe Accelerator invites civil society, entrepreneurs, technology institutes, companies and universities to participate in the webinar launching of the Aguas-IVACE Accelerathon, an open innovation programme organised by the Startup Europe Accelerator of the Finnova Foundation, in collaboration with SEIMED, Aidimme and Redit under the  institutional program Startup Europe  of the European Commision – DG CONNECT in the framework of the WATER STARTUP EUROPE AWARDS

OBJETIVE AND CHALLENGE

The objective is to address the challenge water number 6 of the United Nations SDG to innovate in the treatment of wastewater from industrial processes to recover raw materials, reuse water and minimize environmental impact.

The challenge posed aims to identify innovative solutions by the one hand, and companies, town halls or entities that define their environmental challenges on water to create different multidisciplinary teams on wastewaters by giving solutions to the water Accelerathon challenge to design realistic projects on advanced treatment, water, energy and raw materials recovery.
