Start-ups, innovative SMEs, spin-offs and research groups will then have until 12 October to present their technological proposals in response to the challenges launched by the Top Players. This will then be followed by an individual pitch session to select the winners of each challenge, who will then be awarded at the Winners’ Night, the final evening of the contest, during which the overall winner of the 2022 edition of the contest will also be announced!
