At the heart of ZEEUS are the Seed Factories, pioneering structures designed to transform knowledge into impact.
These collaborative spaces promote a practical and interdisciplinary approach to sustainable entrepreneurship, linking education, research and innovation. Through boot camps, hackathons, mentoring and access to funding networks, Seed Factories help bring ideas with transformative potential to life – from digital solutions for smart cities to new circular economy models.
Throughout the project, more than 1,000 students and 300 academic and non-academic staff members are expected to be involved, and at least eight start-ups with sustainable business models are expected to be created.
ZEEUS is building an international innovation network that will last well beyond the funding phase.
