Balkathon 3.0 winners announced
The Regional Cooperation Council (RCC) presented the winners of the Balkathon 3.0 third Western Balkans online competition for the best digital solutions. The winners include participants from all six Western Balkan economies. This year the competition received around 60 applications, with teams coming from all over the Western Balkans. The 12 finalist teams, seven of them led by girls, were made up of 37 members, of whom 18 were girls.
At the award ceremony organised in Prishtina, Johannes Stenbaek-Madsen, European Union Head of Cooperation in Kosovo, said “Balkathon is one of the many things the EU supports with this beautiful vision that all of the Western Balkans will be members in the European Union one day”.
In the past two years, close to 250 applicants have been a part of Balkathon’s magic, and have competed, pushed boundaries and thought laterally. Nine products by previous Balkathon winner have already been developed and marketed – and the number will soon grow to 15.
