Students from Krems “conquer” the USA
Silicon Valley in the USA is considered a hotspot of innovation in the technology sector. This year, three students from IMC Krems are fulfilling their dream of immersing themselves directly in the world at the heart of American start-up culture and gaining valuable experience at the renowned Berkeley Entrepreneurship Summer School.
Natalia Aldana, Chien Pan and Nina Mrzelj won the trip to California, which is made possible by Tecnet, the country's technology company, and the high-tech incubator Accent, with their project "In-Kind". "We want to promote the international exchange of knowledge for young founders," says Tecnet boss Doris Agneter.
Winning team from Krems
The "In-Kind" team came out on top against 13 other applicants from local universities of applied sciences. The three budding entrepreneurs are developing innovative solutions for the donation sector. "In-Kind" uses modern technologies to collect, sort and distribute donations in kind. "Our aim is to simplify administration for the helpers so that they have more time to look after the people," explained Chieh Pan and her colleagues.
"This project impressively demonstrates how innovative technologies can contribute to overcoming social challenges," emphasized Governor Johanna Mikl-Leitner, who congratulated the three award winners.
