As we move through the first half 2025, we’re excited to share some new highlights! The past months have been vibrant - with impactful programs, engaging workshops, and events bringing together innovators, entrepreneurs, and changemakers.

At SocialTech Lab, we continue to foster meaningful opportunities through hands-on workshops, masterclasses, and community events. Across our platforms, young entrepreneurs and innovators are turning ideas into prototypes, building inclusive networks, and launching initiatives that create real change.

In this update, we showcase key initiatives that have driven our impact, including:

  • Concluded UNDP BOOST with a Demo Day showcasing urban innovations from the Western Balkans to 50+ stakeholders, with €30K in funding going to winning teams.
  • Partnered with the Digital Cooperation Organisation to co-host an STL Alumni Panel at Reflect Festival, sharing insights on impact entrepreneurship.
  • Co-hosted the UNFICYP Fair bringing together artisans, entrepreneurs, and civic leaders from both sides of Nicosia.
  • Co-hosted an interactive webinar on Entrepreneurship & Innovation for Peace with UNITEE and the New European.

As a community center, we also partner with other organisations to host impactful events at The Base:

  • Hosted Dialogue of Civilizations students from Northeastern University and MA Design for Social Innovation students from UCY to discuss our initiatives on social innovation and entrepreneurship for peace.
  • Hosted our first Pizza & Pitch night, giving founders and creatives the chance to share ideas and connect with fellow changemakers.
  • Hosted a Masterclass with Danetha Doe, a hybrid session on aligning passion with profitability, securing capital, and scaling.
  • Hosted From Idea to Impact: Rapid Prototyping with AI on how to create working MVPs in a few hours using AI without coding or a budget.
  • Hosted the 2025 Startups4Peace Info Session presenting programme insights.

We’re also thrilled to share some of our accomplishments from this period with you:

  • Recognized at the Stelios Bicommunal Awards for our Bicommunal Business Cooperation in Cyprus.
  • Named a finalist for the NEB Prizes 2025 with our hub, The Base by CyprusInno

We look forward to the journey ahead - with new programs, partnerships, and opportunities, and sincerely thank you for your continued support and trust in our vision.
