Alternatives for mass tourism, facilitating access to drinking water in remote places, promoting access to decent housing, fighting mosquitoes without harming the environment or using 3D printing to help the disabled are just some of the social challenges in search of a solution through the UJI Emprèn OnSocial programme.

This initiative coordinated by Espaitec and the Increa Chair, with the collaboration of SECOT Castellón, seeks ideas that may become entrepreneurial projects with social, technological or environmental impact. To do this, UJI Emprèn OnSocial will select the most innovative and committed ideas to become a company and offer personalized training and advice during the 2018/2019 academic year. At the end of the programme, the two best projects, both for the evolution of the idea and its potential, may qualify for 20,000 euros in aid to start up the company.

All the challenges are published on the platform of the programme, <http://ujiempren-onsocial.uji.es>. Both the solutions to the existing challenges and new identified challenges can be presented through the platform until October 14, 2018.
