On June 26th, the Faculty of Science and Engineering came alive with energy, creativity, and ambition as 20 student teams took the stage for the grand finale of the first spring edition of the Brightlands Startup Challenge!
After months of preparation, the finalists confidently pitched their ideas to the audience and a panel of expert judges representing our partners Maastricht University, EY, Rabobank, LIOF, and the Brightlands Startup League.
The finale was a celebration of the innovative power of students in the Brightlands region, and we’re proud to announce this edition’s winners:
