I am proud to announce that the team I coordinate, iNovaRIDE, has successfully submitted all the required materials for the second stage, the Innovation Stage (iRIDE) for the 2025 Conrad Challenge. We are eagerly awaiting the results in February.

iRIDE is an innovative mobility solution designed to meet the needs and preferences of visually impaired individuals, enabling them to navigate complex airport environments with confidence and independence.

We hope our project will be selected for the final stage, providing us the opportunity to present it at the Conrad Challenge Innovation Summit, which will be held at Space Center Houston and NASA Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas, USA, in April 2025.

I would like to congratulate my team members,  Mara Cioban from Y10 being one of them. I am incredibly proud of both of them!
