Challenge goals Identify and implement technological solutions and smart mobility tools that allow us to reduce the environmental impact caused by inefficiencies in urban mobility management in the following categories: ● Urban mobility elements with high congestion rates (intersections, traffic circles, urban highways) We are looking for innovative solutions that allow us to improve safety and efficiency in traffic management, taking advantage of different technologies (traffic lights, smart signaling, cameras, etc). ● Low Emission Zones (urban centers) We are looking for innovative solutions associated with efficient management that improves environmental impact and fluidity/efficiency in urban mobility. ● High-rotation parking zones, RPA (Residential Priority Area), park-and-ride lots, sidewalks, fords and loading and unloading zones We are looking for innovative solutions and new lines of development that allow us to move towards a smart city. Solutions must be easy to implement to ensure scalability. We are looking for innovative solutions that: ● Act as levers capable of reducing emissions of greenhouse gases caused directly or indirectly by urban mobility. ● Guarantee an adequate and fluid development of economic activities in the areas where the solutions are to be implemented. ● Ensure a better quality of life for the people who transit through these urban areas. ● Improve the acoustic quality of the most affected areas during peak hours.
We are looking for new, innovative patient-friendly solutions for continuous improvement of investigational product adherence in clinical trials. The solution should also allow for the prediction, assessment, and identification of potential risk factors contributing to clinical trial non-adherence in clinical trial participants. Goals: Find solutions that are patient-focused and engaging, which provide support and motivation to remain adherent with investigational products as well as visit schedules throughout their trial. Provide insights and analytics to better predict the adherence curve for clinical trial participants to allow for appropriate intervention to maintain investigational product adherence. Capture adherence metrics back to the study teams.

Why Challenge Labs? We want to tackle the big problems that are facing the food sector by bringing together diverse groups of people to find innovative solutions and conveying a set of skills and competencies contributing to enhance innovation capabilities. The activity will lead to developing by participant following skills under EIT Food competency framework: Entrepreneurship (launching ideas, customer identification), Problem solving (teamwork, design thinking, canvas models), Communication (presenting ideas, pitching to customers) and Food systems (sustainability of production, efficiency of delivery, sustainable packaging). Challenge Labs are an opportunity to spark co-founder relationships, lead to the creation of new businesses and build links between industry, academia, and start-ups around a pertinent and topical challenge. What is the challenge this year? The future of our roots: reimagining a sustainable Mediterranean food system How can we provide end-consumers with affordable and high-quality local products? Respond to market needs by combining quality, sustainability, and affordability. Provide consumers with products that are high-quality (organic, fresh, nutritious) and affordable (within the same price range as their mass-produced, non-organic counterparts). Encourage the sales of fresh and sustainable Mediterranean products with positive social and/or environmental impact. When and where does the Challenge Lab 2022: Southern Europe take place? This year, the Challenge Lab 2022: Southern Europe will be a 100%-online event taking place on September 28th and 30th. The first day will include a keynote address, a crash course, and other dynamics to stimulate ideation and solution prioritization. The second day will be for the presentation of the innovative projects (pitches). It is mandatory for the participants to be present in both days of the hackathon.
