European Social Innovation Competition 2015 Awards Ceremony

28 September 2015

(From ec.europa.eu)

Join us in Brussels on 25 November at 14:30 for the European Social Innovation Competition Awards Ceremony. The finalists will deliver their pitches, and the awards will be presented by Commissioner Elżbieta Bieńkowska.

The 10 finalists of the 2015 European Social Innovation Competition will compete for the 3 prizes of €50,000.

The prizes will be presented by Elżbieta Bieńkowska, European Commissioner responsible for Internal Market, Industry, Entrepreneurship and SMEs.

During the ceremony we will recognise successful projects among the finalists of the 2013 and 2014 editions, all of which have had a positive impact both in economic terms and for the benefit of society.

With the competition judges, we will also explore new territories for social innovation ranging from the collaborative economy to the open innovation trend through the makers' movement.

The grand finale will be the announcement of our three 2015 winners, who will each receive €50,000 towards developing their ideas for ‘New Ways to Grow’, followed by networking and celebratory cocktails until 20:00.
