SPRING’25 PROTOTYPING FUND SHOWCASE

Join us for the end of our 4th Prototyping Fund cycle with the showcase of 13 incredible students’ projects!

Join us for the end of our 4th (already 4th!) Prototyping Fund cycle with the showcase of 13 incredible projects.

The Prototyping Fund is a collaborative program offered by the DESIS Lab @NovaSBE with the support of Nova SBE Haddad Entrepreneurship Institute and FabLab Lisboa. This program awards teams of students (with at least one member from Nova University) up to €600 or €2000 to be used to build hardware, software prototypes or prototype engagement activities, and connects them with the resources, tools, and mentors they need to bring their ideas to life. This spring we have 11 new teams, bringing fresh perspectives and ideas to the table, as well as 2 teams continuing their journey from the previous cycle.

In Phase 1, we selected 11 projects, across multiple programs at Nova SBE, and for the first time we also have 2 projects from NOVA Faculdade de Ciências e Tecnologias and NOVA Medical School respectively! The selected projects encompass a diverse range of areas, including health-focused innovations such as smart nicotine delivery devices, therapy engagement platforms, and AI-driven sleep assistants.

TIME AND LOCATION: The Prototyping Fund Showcase will take place on April 8th from 12:30 pm to 2 pm on the KPMG Gallery!

Students worked hard this semester to prototype and test their ideas and it’s important for them to get feedback and suggestions from different people. As it’s a showcase, you can stop by for only a short time.
