Applications for the 2017 edition of Call Born from Knowledge IDEAS are open until July 31. The initiative consists of Call of ideas aimed at higher education students and researchers, whose goal is to reward and disseminate knowledge-based business ideas that combine creativity, business potential, innovation and impact on society.

The 15 finalists of Call will have access to an immersion program, to take place on a date to be announced, in order to provide them with the refinement and development of the ideas to Call and to enable them for a final pitch.
