Matchpoint is an innovative application which allows individuals to easily find and book sporting facilities near them. Following a simple signing up procedure, and an expression of interests, location preferences, skill level, consumers are able to easily navigate our free app, so as to find football, basketball or tennis facilities near them. Our application allows consumers to reserve such sporting facilities in addition to pairing them up with players of a similar age and skill level, providing them with a means to incorporate exercise into their daily life with the click of a few buttons, thus embracing and promoting the well being

of the consumer and the unity of society.

On the other hand, the sports centers providing their facilities with which we will cooperate, will also greatly benefit. Through our business they will be able to attain advertising and promote their centers to a much larger audience which may have never heard of them before.

According to the finance department’s estimations, Matchpoint is a sustainable business with the ability of fast scale up. Bearing in mind the great importance of physical exercise for all people, despite their age, we are confident that the creation of Matchpint will benefit all its users who wish to engage in exercising, as it will significantly simplify the process of reserving sporting facilities but will also solve the issue of finding players to play with, which we came to realize following our primary research with questionnaires. As a result, our business clearly has a notable social nature to it, due to the fact that it aids its users in

materializing a healthy lifestyle, which in its turn will yield them a number of other benefits.

Despite the fact that there is currently a small number of competitors in the market, the services that they provide are exclusive to a single sport, as opposed to Matchpoint who offers users a variety of sports to choose from, differentiating it from any other company in the market.

Italy - Leaflife

Ninfa is an innovative product created by our student team, with the help of numerous partners, some of which helped us develop the idea, and others helped us create the prototype. Ninfa was created after the need of finding a perfect device for everyday people helping them taking care at their plants at home.

The development of the idea obviously came after a study of people needs, a study that was evidenced by surveys sent to the public by our teams, those surveys helped us understand better how to create the perfect and more efficient plant meter.

“Are you tired of checking everyday every plant you own in order to understand if they need water or not? Well then you should definitely buy a Ninfa!”

Our team is projected into a future mission of starting to sell Ninfa and investing into our strategies, that’s why we’ve been in contact with our partners and supporters in order to make it possible in the soonest future.

Ecological decomposition of styrofoam with the help of mealworms (Tenebrio Molitor)

There are a number of plant fertilizers on the market, organic, chemical, natural and artificial. Each of them offers some benefits to the consumers, each of them contributes in their own way for the functioning of the market and each of them in some way help the people who grow plants professionally or as a hobby. But imagine a fertilizer that is not only beneficial to plants and consumers, that is not only natural or artificial, but is a symbiosis of both, a fertilizer that has a greater purpose, not only to feed our plants, but also to help save our planet from pollution, to involve people in its production and thus in addition to its primary goal of being a fertilizer, to sell and increase awareness of environmental care. Our idea is to create a fertilizer, by recycling Styrofoam with the help of mealworms, that will make a change and which with its inventiveness on the market will announce a new revolution, not of an industrial nature, but rather an environmental one.

Slovenia - VISUS - See with me

See With Me (SWM) is a smart device that communicates data from the environment to blind and partially sighted people via vibrations on the belt. The device is easily placed around the waist and turned on. Functionally, the device would offer a higher level of assistance than a guide dog. We proved its usefulness when we tested the prototype with the help of Miha Srebrnjak. It is easy to handle, as it requires no other care than charging the batteries. It has a built-in GPS and gyroscope, which enable safe movement in urban and rural environments.

The lives of the blind and visually impaired are full of obstacles and problems that the rest of us are not even aware of. For them, walking in a straight line is already a challenge. The device is suitable for all blind and partially sighted people. We came up with the idea for SWM after talking to ten blind people who highlighted the need for new innovations in this area. They rated the usefulness of our device positively and would buy the device. It can be purchased independently or with state co-financing through the catalog of technical aids for the blind and visually impaired. Thus, our commercially advantageous device will not financially burden the users. Its price is 2200 euros. With an additional payment of up to 500 €, the device can also be upgraded and adapted to the individual needs of users.

Visus is a company that strives to facilitate and improve the quality of life of the blind and partially sighted. We want the invisible world to become visible and manageable again with our help.

Italy – SeaSide

The “Sea Side” project arises from the need to rethink a development system that too often forgets its burdens on the land and the seas that host it. “Sea Side” wants to be the protagonist of this change not only by imagining a sea free from human waste, but by forming aware citizens, capable of reversing the course and regaining possession of the beauties of our planet. _ Taking advantage of the collaboration of institutions, associations, cooperatives and universities, "Sea Side" creates a network made up of the social fabric of the city capable of adopting measures aimed at combating and preventing marine pollution.

Innovative technology for manufacturing eco-friendly anticorrosive coating

We have an idea - what now? It is good to test it on the market as soon as possible and find objective reasons that your idea has the potential to succeed. Investors, or the jury of experts at the EUSAIR POPRI youth competition, want to see the same.

The EUSAIR POPRI youth competition template consists of 1 + 9 + 1 chapters. The first (mandatory) chapter is a summary where you briefly describe the entire business model. You can write a summary at the beginning, or complete this chapter later, when you will get a better picture of all the components of the business model by completing the other chapters.

The other 9 (mandatory) chapters are about Lean Frame - a tool used by Startup entrepreneurs around the world (more information can be found in the book Running Lean, Ash Maurya).

In the last chapter "MVP and feedback with interviews" you describe what your prototype or MVP looks like and tell how you obtained confirmation from your potential customers or conducted interviews.

First describe the problem you are solving, then define people you are solving the problem for, describe what your solution looks like, explain how you differ from your competition, how you will attract customers, what are the key indicators for success, what is your elusive advantage and how money will flow in and out of the business.

For easier completion, we will describe an example of Slovenian product ULLA (https://www.ulla.io/) in each chapter. The case of ULLA will be described very briefly, so to show you the way of thinking. With the help of the product description and sub-questions, filling out the template will definitely be easier.

Magnet strap winder

The problem I was dealing with when developing the new product was the difficulty of wrapping the connecting straps by hand, which also takes a lot of time. These problems are faced today by truck drivers, farmers, foresters, etc. Because there has been no product on the market that would solve this problem, I have developed a concept and the product that would contribute to the effectiveness of this task in the resulting time savings.
