On 22 January 2026, we’re gathering at the Excelsior Stadium for an afternoon full of pitches and insights with the teams that have made it to the final stage of the Erasmus
University Challenge.
The program includes an opening by Up!Rotterdam and Erasmus Enterprise, a short introduction from Annelien Bredenoord (President of Erasmus University Rotterdam), the finalist pitches, a Q&A round, the award show and of course, network drinks to close the day!
