This second edition of the proof of concept programme was launched in March 2024!

The programme aims to promote the growth of the blue economy sector, accelerate knowledge transfer, and increase the visibility of companies and technological solutions (the “made in Portugal” brand). For that, we interviewed 47 startups from a home-built data base of more than 100 startups tackling specific challenges presented by Portuguese corporates. Stay tuned for the “finale”, to be held in Aveiro by the 23rd of October.
