Raw Ideas for Materials Projects

Raw Materials Ideas for Projects (RaIdMaP) is a project to establish a competition in which students compete in an international team to innovate and solve an industrial challenge with an industrial mentor.

Led by Università degli Studi di Padova (Italy) and together with NTNU (Norway) and Fraunhofer IFAM (Germany), teams will be given an industrial mentor to help them develop their solution. Teams compete in one of three competitions organised by the partner universities and the winners compete again in a Grand Final in Berlin.

In 2020, nine team competed, with three selected for a grand final. Presentations from the grand final can be found on the Scuoloa Ingegneria Padova YouTube channel .
