Latvian university students are invited to take part in a competition in which student teams must present their innovation - an environmentally friendly, sustainable product or technology.
The Latvian State Institute of Wood Chemistry organises the National final of the BISC-E competition. Participants are invited to register their teams by 15 December by emailing the BISC-E local contact Uģis Cābulis (ugis.cabulis@kki.lv). To register, please send the team name, the names of the team members and the consultant, as well as a description of the innovation in up to 150 words in English.

During the National final, a jury will select the winner, who will receive a cash prize and the opportunity to participate in the European final.
