Winners and experts 2023

On November 23, the ceremony took place. It was embarrassing and at times touching, and also energetic and inspiring. The organizers received 100 applications from 50 companies, including 36 projects caused by a full-scale invasion and 49 projects outside the context of war. However, the concentrated analysis of each project by the jury team still made it possible to choose the best among the best.
