InnoRenew CoE joined the University of Primorska at the sports and social event StartUP, which took place on Saturday, 7 October 2023, in the Žusterna Seaside Park. The event was for all students as an introduction to the new academic year.

Mariem Zouari, Lei Han, Martina Vrhovnik and Lea Primožič from InnoRenew CoE attended the event and presented InnoRenew CoE. They prepared an interesting quiz for the participants about different types of wood and a small experiment with the biochar. Students saw also certain samples that were modified with the processes used at the institute.

Other members of the University of Primorska and cultural associations from the local area were also present at the event. All students were welcomed and addressed by Dr. Klavdija Kutnar, University of Primorska rector and representatives from the Mnicipality of Koper.
