We will then spend most of the time digging\, measuring\, seeding\, planting\, and creating the womb of a ‘tiny little forest’ of 20 square meters. This workshop is right for you if you want to learn about ecology\, nature\, agroforestry\, and anthropology by-doing\, and if you want to have a good time outside with friends stewarding new life. \n\n\n\nThe workshop is organized by the DESIS Lab @ Nova SBEand it’ll take place at the Community Garden at Nova SBE. \n\n\n\nIt is open only to ALL!!!!!! And we have 3 slots for you to show up: \n\n\n\n9am to 10am \n\n\n\n10am to 11am \n\n\n\n11am to 12pm \n\n\n\nOr you can join for the whole activity 🙂 \n\n\n\nMore about João Brites: \n\n\n\nA regenerative dancer\, economist and entrepreneur that has been championing sustainable development for more than 10 years across civil society\, academia\, nonprofit and the for profit sector.

SUMMARY:SPRING'24 PROTOTYPING FUND SHOWCASE
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the end of our 2nd Prototyping Fund cycle with the showcase of 13 incredible projects. \n\n\n\nThe Prototyping Fund is a collaborative program offered by the DESIS Lab @NovaSBE and Nova SBE Haddad Entrepreneurship Institute\, created under the project Shaping the World by Innonexus\, funded by the European Union. This program awards teams of students (with at least one member from Nova SBE or LSE) 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 selected one team who participated in the Fall for the Phase 2 (for 1500 euros). \n\n\n\nIn Phase 1\, we selected 12 projects\, across multiple programs at Nova SBE (with 7 from the Master’s in Impact Entrepreneurship and Innovation) and one from LSE who will join us on campus for the Final Showcase. Projects ranged from upcycling materials and food waste\, climate tech (biochar\, new material)\, energy efficiency\, and health. \n\n\n\nYou can read more about the projects here \n\n\n\nThe Prototyping Fund Showcase will take place on April 22nd from 12:30 pm to 2 pm in the open space in the Food Court at Nova SBE. \n\n\n\nStudents 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.
