|
| The Organising Committee of Guimaraes 2019 is excited to introduce a new kind of exciting competition in an IABSE Symposium, the ‘IABSE Tank.’ This competition aims to bridge the gap between the innovative and creative engineers and the daring investors in the industry searching for something new. On stage, the candidates either an individual or a team will sell their new and patented ideas (e.g. innovative products, materials, techniques, software, services, etc.) to the 5 investors. The investors will decide on the spot if he/she is willing to invest or not. This is not a game, but a real opportunity for both investors and innovators to meet and start a real business partnership. There are still slots available for both investors and innovators. An opportunity that cannot be missed! Click here for more information | | |
