CURRENT ANNOUNCEMENT ABOUT THE COMPETITION
The competition is postponed to next year!
We regret to inform you that the InnovateNow.sk competition is being postponed until next year. Each participant will be automatically included in the next edition, which we plan to launch again in a year.
Despite strong promotion, fewer projects participated in this year’s call than we expected. Most of them, however, did not meet the required quality standards necessary for a fair competition. The committee selected a few projects with innovative potential that could enter the finals.
We do not want anyone to feel offended – on the contrary, your effort may be appreciated next year. Each of you will automatically be included in next year’s edition, which we plan to launch again in a year. We believe that next year we will be able to reach a broader audience and attract more talent that will help move the Slovak business environment forward.
Thank you for your participation, and we look forward to the next edition!
