Innovation, Invention, Creativity and Entrepreneurship, connected in theory separated in practice:

• Innovation is the process of turning a new concept into commercial success or widespread use.
• Invention is the creation of a new idea or concept.
• Creativity is the act of turning new and imaginative ideas into reality.
• Entrepreneurship is the creation of new organizations.

CE - Community Engagement

Community Engagement (CE) focuses on building platforms and tools that help people come together, share ideas, and work on local problems. For example, apps for reporting civic issues like broken streetlights, websites for community suggestions, or digital boards for planning town activities. These tools make people feel involved in building a better society.

ET - Geospatial Enabling Technologies

Using maps, satellite images, and GPS tools to understand and solve problems related to land, environment, and planning. This can help in disaster response (e.g., tracking floods), planning roads and cities, or monitoring forests and agriculture.

URS - Urban and Rural Sustainability

Developing eco-friendly technologies that help both cities and villages grow in a healthy way. This includes renewable energy (like solar panels), water purification systems, smart farming tools, and eco-construction methods. The aim is to protect nature while improving life for people.

URS - Program Coordinator:
