The Euro-Mediterranean University (EMUNI) is proud to launch the Euro-Mediterranean Innovation Camp (EMIC), a unique innovation competition and boot camp for youth in the region. EMIC is a new venture for 2023, which aims to nurture innovation and creativity among 18–35-year-olds.

Residents of the Euro-Mediterranean and within this age-group with a novel idea or invention that has the potential to be commercialised and could be converted to a prototype within 3 months can apply. The innovation must address one of the following three thematic areas: health, renewable energy, and environment (including climate change).

Whether the applicant is a high school graduate, in higher education, post-graduate, or employed, EMIC wants to hear from you – all that is needed are inventive minds with dynamic ideas! (and don´t forget a good command of English).

EMUNI and its partners, the Jozef Stefan Institute (Slovenia) and EuroMed University of Fes (UEMF), are excited to be providing Euro-Mediterranean youth with the opportunity to think big and ultimately, make their ideas a reality. EMIC is supported by the Union for the Mediterranean (UfM), Republic of Slovenia Ministry of Science, Education and Sports, and Republic of Slovenia Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
