TechQuartier provided an excellent venue and it was a pleasure for all involved.</p><p>As usual, the final was divided into two categories, "Innovation" and "Startup". Projects in the "Innovation" category need a plausible solution approach with promising impact potential, as well as a concrete presentation of their business model. Projects in the "Startup" category, on the other hand, must already have a proof-of-concept, a functioning business model and initial results, so that a spin-off is within sight.</p><h3 style="text-align:center;">Results of the Innovation &amp; Startup Category</h3><figure class="image image-style-align-left image_resized" style="width:26.52%;"><img src="https://strapi.debacode.de/uploads/IMG_9520_6205bff2d1.jpg" alt="Das Projektteam von Enactus Aachen zusammen mit Andrei Todea (EY) und Country Leader Oliver Faber von Enactus Germany." srcset="https://strapi.debacode.de/uploads/thumbnail_IMG_9520_6205bff2d1.jpg 156w, https://strapi.debacode.de/uploads/xsmall_IMG_9520_6205bff2d1.jpg 250w, https://strapi.debacode.de/uploads/small_IMG_9520_6205bff2d1.jpg 500w, https://strapi.debacode.de/uploads/medium_IMG_9520_6205bff2d1.jpg 750w, https://strapi.debacode.de/uploads/large_IMG_9520_6205bff2d1.jpg 1000w" sizes="100vw" width="1000"></figure><p style="text-align:justify;">In the category Innovation the following project teams participated in the final round: Differgy (Enactus Mannheim), Fish'n'Bricks (Enactus Karlsruhe), InSealation (Enactus Münster), Moin!Münster (Enactus Münster), Raindance (Enactus Wuppertal), Vlouw (Enactus Hamburg).
