Events

The Sci-Tech Challenge, a partnership between JA Europe and ExxonMobil, is designed to motivate students aged 15-18 ton consider Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM) careers, raise awareness on the importance of STEM skills and about how they can be applied in enterprising ways to tackle the challenges of tomorrow.

Furthermore, the programme helps raise awareness of energy-related issues and provides students in 5 European countries (Belgium, Cyprus, Italy, the Netherlands and Romania) with hands-on experience in the application of STEM skills.

Until May, students will participate in national innovation camps. The best national teams will have the opportunity to compete with each other in the Grand Finale in front of a high-level jury panel on 20 May 2021. Due to COVID-19 restrictions, the event will be organized virtually for the second year.

What can be a bigger goal than inspiring a whole generation? In 2021, we are merging our flagship events - the Company of the Year Competition (CoYC) and the European Entrepreneurship Challenge (EEC) - into the largest European Entrepreneurship Festival: Gen-E, virtually hosted by JA Lithuania.
