RentMatch
The challenge we are trying to solve with RentMatch is the inefficiency and frustration in the traditional housing rental process. Currently, tenants often face difficulties in finding suitable properties that meet their needs, while landlords struggle to identify reliable tenants amidst a flood of applications. This leads to wasted time, resources, and dissatisfaction on both sides of the rental equation.

Ever had a brilliant project idea but struggled to find the right people to bring it to life? Whether it's starting a feminist collective, staging a theater production, or organizing a music festival, you need a team with diverse skills. But without a solid network, connecting with people across different fields is tough. People resort to paying experts on platforms like Fiverr or relying on scattered LinkedIn connections and Social Media. What's missing? A platform tailor-made for young, global-minded people looking for meaningful collaborations. Introducing Coalla: Where skills turn into projects!

The Netherlands has one of the worst water qualities in the EU when it comes to ground and surface water. Especially the excessive use of fertilisers has resulted in 40% of samples exceeding the EU limit of nitrate concentration. Too much nitrate is unhealthy, harms ecosystems and destroys biodiversity.
Aestuarium
Despite the majority of Earth’s surface being covered by water, only 1% of this is accessible fresh water. Fresh water scarcity is an ongoing problem, which is projected to only worsen in the future. As such, by as soon as 2030, global demand for this precious resource is expected to exceed supply by 40%. Seawater desalination unlocks an "infinite" supply of fresh water, and holds the potential to bridge this aforementioned gap. However, current desalination technologies are expensive, energy intensive and environmentally damaging. Aestuarium is developing sustainable and cost-effective alternatives, to ensure an abundant and accessible fresh water supply.
The Platform
Polarization within society; the growing inability and unwillingness in society to understand different perspectives and put ourselves in others shoes.
UPYourself
Many high school students lack essential skills that are crucial to their academic and professional progress. This gap makes the transition from high school to college ( / life after high school) particularly challenging. Schools sometimes try to tackle aspects of this challenge on their own, leading to inconsistency for students and sometimes a lack of continuity in their professional development.

People with physical disabilities encounter numerous problems every single day. One of the biggest obstacles that many might encounter are related to writing or typing. Say you need to type out a * to show that you are doing a multiplication, but you are unable to use both arms to press the shift and 8 key. This situation can turn out to be quite tricky, especially when you are trying to make a test or do some otherwise simple tasks. We initially found that the grades in school for some children with physical disabilities were taking big hits due to their inability to efficiently work with their computers. And this is where our story starts, with a teenage girl called Emily. She is a bright girl with cerebral palsy, but she just couldn't translate her intelligence to good grades due to her condition.
