Ennovation is a yearly University Competition on Entrepreneurship and Innovation with a four-month duration. The competition is run by a network of 20+ universities in Greece and Cyprus under the coordination of the ACE.
The main objective of Ennovation is to accelerate innovative “University Born” ideas by providing the participants with the knowledge, skill set, tools, and confidence required to turn them into action. The program is specifically designed for university students at all levels — from undergraduates to master’s and PhD candidates — as well as academic researchers, empowering them to turn their business ideas or research into sustainable ventures.
The entrepreneurial teams that enter the Ennovation competition are divided by the organizing committee into three distinct streams according to their maturity:
Primarily aimed at undergraduate students who are at the idea stage and wish to explore the entrepreneurial journey for the first time.
Aimed at more developed teams with validated concepts or early prototypes.
Aimed at research teams seeking to commercialize scientific outcomes or bring deep-tech innovations to market.
Gain access to specialized workshops and guidance from experienced mentors and industry professionals.
Receive support in shaping and refining your business model.
Connect with other innovative teams and gain exposure to investors and business partners.
Compete for cash prizes, access incubators, and receive further assistance to implement your idea.
