4th i4Challenge: applications open until July 15

The i4Challenge acceleration program is now in its fourth year. By launching this program, Basel Area Business & Innovation aims to promote Industry 4.0 and contribute to the development of innovations in the fields of advanced manufacturing, MEMs and automation.

Applications open until July 15, 2021

i4Challenge aims to support SMEs, startups and founders/students in Industry 4.0, who each have the opportunity to acquire funding for their projects. Parties interested in the program can submit their applications until July 15; SMEs and startups must have at least one prototype of the solution. On September 30, the winners, and thus the participants in the program, will be announced. They will then have the opportunity to further develop their business ideas in the fields of advanced manufacturing, MEMs and automation as part of the i4Challenge.

Candidates can enhance their profile via Basel-Landschaft's communication channels, use the Basel Area and Innovation network to establish contacts with experts, companies and investors, and benefit from mentoring by industry experts. In this way, the i4Challenge can also serve as a springboard for this year's participants, as has been the case for some companies in previous years.
