The award for the best entrepreneurial and innovative idea of high school students in the Adriatic-Ionian region was won by our protégés Eva Kuruzović and Lidija Wolf. It was an honour for us to mentor these two special young ladies together with the Innovation Center Banja Luka.

The international competition for innovation and entrepreneurship, POPRI International, was held this year on May 6-7, 2025 on the Greek island of Crete, and our team as the high school representatives won first place! The students presented their idea under the name “ReGlass” (Idea Description: Transforming the approach to glass recycling with a sustainable and innovative solution). The POPRI competition is held annually as a side event of the EUSAIR Forum and bring together young people from 10 EUSAIR countries (Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Greece, Italy, Montenegro, North Macedonia, San Marino, Serbia and Slovenia).
