For eight years now, the European Hopefuls for Innovation - Innovact have, with the support of the European Commission enabled young students to implement their projects at European level.

If you are a student with a creative idea for a business project, you can, with a team or individually, take part in the 8th edition of the European Hopefuls for Innovation whose aim is to reward new and challenging projects. Your project can either be in its design stage, in progress or already launched.

The selection committee composed of professionals (heads of companies, journalists, scientists) will reward the candidates who - whatever the product or activity - show imagination as creators.

All students can take part in the competition either individually or within the framework of their institution. However, the reputation or prestige of the institution will not influence the final decision, which will depend entirely on the quality of the projects presented.

The winners will receive prize money and will benefit from media coverage.
The Awards ceremony will take place in Reims on March 2 2010.
