THE FINALISTS OF THE EURO-MEDITERRANEAN INNOVATION BRIGADE: YOUR VOTE COUNTS

The Euro-Mediterranean Innovation Camp (EMIC) held its semi-final elimination phase today, with 4 young "innovators" now having reached the final of the competition!

Over the past two months, the 6 shortlisted candidates were hosted either at the workshops of the Euro-Mediterranean University (EMUNI) and the Jožef Stefan Institute in Slovenia, or at the Euro-Mediterranean University of Fès (UEMF) in Morocco, where they benefited from technical assistance and mentoring from subject matter experts, experienced engineers, developers and product designers, as well as innovation experts. Today, at the EMUNI premises, candidates who were unable to present a functional prototype or validate that their future products are needed on the market were eliminated by a jury of 3 members.

The 4 finalists are Georgios Paliouras (Greece), specialized in renewable energies, and Jihene Nouairi (Tunisia), Laila Mahmoud (Egypt) and Patricija Ham (Slovenia), specialized in environment and climate change.

They will participate on 8 June in the EMIC final during the celebration of the 15th anniversary of EMUNI, in front of a live audience, to present their prototypes. The event will be broadcast live at the following address: and you can vote!
