Creative Business Cup Innovation Challenge is a new initiative that aims to strengthen and support innovation in specific areas. Startups from around the globe get the opportunity to present their pioneering and innovative solutions before an international and dedicated jury. The CBC Innovation Challenges create a unique platform for long lasting collaborations and sustainable solutions

The Creative Business Cup Innovation Challenges present new ways for startups to become involved in Creative Business Cup, pitch for investors, present new and innovative idea and participate in the International Finals in November in Copenhagen, Denmark. This is also for startups who are not national winners!

Startups that belong to one or more of the Innovation Challenge categories are welcome to participate in the Creative Business Innovation Challenge. Each challenge has a set of screeners and jury that determine which startups will be invited to attend the international finals in Copenhagen. During the finals, each of the Innovation Challenges will have its own sessions with seminars, workshops, pitching and it will be attended by investors within the respective areas.
