iute, always in support of innovation and entrepreneurship

Event

If we talk about entrepreneurial spirit and innovation, iute will always be there. This time we were official sponsors of the “Get In The Ring Albania” event, part of the official structure of “Get In The Ring Global”, based in the Netherlands.

GITR is a concept that brings to the stage entrepreneurs who want to present their company in the “start-up” format, to seek mentorship, financial support, and promotion of all kinds. In a “ring”, different entrepreneurs, regardless of age, gender, or cultural background, face each other and challenge each other, showing the qualities and characteristics of their business ideas. The evaluation was done by the jury, judging on: initial presentation, team, achievements, business model and call to action.

Guess out who was part of the jury in this event? Yes, that’s right, it was the CEO of iute, Mr. Akan Ajdini, who, as always, with his charisma, conveyed important messages to the competitors, inviting them to work, improve and fight to achieve their dreams.

The winner was a surprise: just 17 years old, Geart Ferhati with the Swaper project, an innovative idea that merged AI technology with study and learning.
