To create a new generation of well-trained trained MIS researchers including potential candidates for future EAES committees
One of the main subjects the Research Talent Academy is working on is the Research Sandpit.
In this project candidates groups of 5 people will work together to develop a project proposal and a 3-minute presentation (pitch) to be given to the EAES research panel at the end of the sandpit. To the winning team 10,000 Euro of funding will be made available to deliver the project.
