The ZebraNanoTox project that consists of the creation of a spin-off based on zebrafish already competes for a national award.
This project won in previous competitions (BoosterWe and Idea Lugo), but now competes against 1200 projects from all over Spain. This has been selected from many applications to participate in the Yuzz Program sponsored by Santander Bank. Our PhD student Carlha Gutiérrez and our student of Master Vanessa Pérez receive training sessions in business management, creativity and innovation given by the pool of experts YUZZ, a network of more than 200 professionals.
The Santander YUZZ program will distribute 30.000, 20.000 and 10.000 euros for the first, second and third winners nationwide. In addition, the local winners of each YUZZ center will have the opportunity to travel to the world's largest entrepreneurial ecosystem, Silicon Valley (California-USA). The Santander YUZZ program with the collaboration of Fundación EY will award with 20.000 euros to the best entrepreneurial project led by a woman.
We wish good luck to our entrepreneurs.
