The IDEAS CALL 2025 ended with the awards gala in February :) The next chance to submit your idea will be in the fall.
Fresh ideas for a livable world!
Join in and share your vision!
We are once again looking for ideas and sustainable concepts, which at the core of their activity contribute to solving societal or ecological challenges. The focus is on innovative approaches that are fundamentally new or have not yet been implemented in Styria – and thus also represent added value for the Styrian regions. The range of categories is wide: from projects in the fields of education and training or society and coexistence to topics dealing with climate protection, sustainable agriculture and resource conservation. Innovations from the fields of “Tech for Good” and economic development are also awaited. Everything that has an impact on a better future can be submitted.
The competition is open to individuals aged 18 and over, businesses, and non-profit organizations. There is a separate prize for the youth category starting from 14 years old.
Whether it’s a rough draft or a finished business plan, all submissions received by January 15, 2025 will be presented to an expert jury. The best of the best will win € 2,000 in total.
SAVE THE DATE: The winners will be announced at the grand award ceremony on February 6, 2025, starting at 6 PM! >>Register for the event here!
all workshops and events are held in German language
