From June 9th to 11th, 2025, partners of the 4InnoPipe2 project participated in the CloudEARTHi Conference series “Toward a Knowledge-Based Society”, held in Wrocław, Poland. This marked a significant milestone for the consortium, as it was the first in-person meeting since the project’s launch.

The hybrid event brought together academics, industry leaders, and changemakers from across Europe to explore how deep tech, sustainability, and entrepreneurship can shape a more equitable and competitive society. The conference, themed “Innovation for a Sustainable Future: Integrating Technology, Education, and Cross-Sector Collaboration for a Competitive Economy and Equitable Society”, provided a dynamic platform for networking, knowledge exchange, and cross-project collaboration.

4InnoPipe2 partners took the opportunity to discuss project progress, align on future activities, and identify synergies with other European initiatives. Visionary keynotes and interactive workshops offered inspiration and practical tools to support the project’s goals of fostering innovation pipelines and sustainable entrepreneurship through higher education.

Notably, several 4InnoPipe2 partners also contributed as speakers at the conference. Dr. Monika Sońta from Kozminski University led an engaging workshop titled “A Hands-On Approach to Stakeholder Mapping and Strategic Innovation”. Using Playmobil.pro, participants explored innovation ecosystems through a tangible and interactive method, identifying key stakeholders, collaboration dynamics, and opportunities for ecosystem development.

Additionally, Mjellma Carabregu Vokshi presented a case study titled “Integrating Artificial Intelligence in Teaching and Learning: A Case Study from Kosovo’s Higher Education System”, offering valuable insights into the use of AI to enhance education in the region.

The event was co-organized by Kyiv Academic University (Ukraine) and the Faculty of Management of the Wrocław University of Science and Technology (Poland), and proved to be an inspiring start to deeper cooperation among projects committed to sustainable innovation.
