Protected: EYI Grand Jury Meeting in Istanbul
This September, knowledge leaders from the WSA's community will meet in Türkiye at the European Young Innovators Grand Jury Meeting—a gathering dedicated to recognizing and celebrating Europe's most creative young digital entrepreneurs.
Fifteen winners will be selected based on how their projects use technology, not just to build their business, but to drive positive societal change. Whether they’re addressing climate resilience, inclusive education, democratic participation, or public health, these innovators represent the next generation of impact-driven leadership in Europe.
The EYI Grand Jury Meeting isn’t just about recognizing talent, the event brings together a dynamic, intra-European group of experts and changemakers from across numerous business and social sectors. Beyond the decision-making process, it’s also a space for exchange—where ideas are shared, conversations sparked, and Linkedin profiles exchanged.
Excitingly, this year’s meeting will be part of UNIDO’s Cleantech Days 2025, which takes place in Istanbul from 1–5 September. Organized under the Global Cleantech Innovation Programme and co-hosted with TÜBİTAK, this global forum makes its first appearance outside of Vienna. The event invites cleantech entrepreneurs, investors, and policymakers to explore how innovation can drive inclusive and sustainable change.
As part of a new collaboration, elements of the Young Innovators Grand Jury Meeting will be supported by UNIDO, with participants also contributing to Cleantech Days’ startup-track sessions—bringing fresh insights and energy to a shared mission.
There are good things coming! Keep your eyes on Istanbul.😎
