What did your participation in the program give you?

First of all, the program mobilized me to clarify and refine my idea. Since a lot of questions were asked during implementation that I hadn't asked myself before, I had to find clear solutions that also helped me understand my actions more. Otherwise, it gave me the needed time and comfort, including financial, to test and test the idea. The support of program supervisor Maja Kurant, and consequently my idea, allowed me to believe in my innovation.
