A jury, made up of members of Arqus’ regional economic partners, will rate the video. This will account for 50% of the final score. Public votes for the videos will count for the other 50% of the final score.

The video with the highest score will win the competition and a chance to have mentoring sessions as well as a mobility visit to one of the Arqus’ partners, for a cultural and exploratory experience coordinated by the local entrepreneurship centre.

The finals have been programmed for the week of the 3rd May also to be part of the activities organised for the Arqus Academy Week.
