ANJE(National Association of Young Entrepreneurs), in partnership with the concessionaire ๐๐จ๐ซ๐ฌ๐๐ฎ๐ญ and Egis Road Operation Portugal, launched an entrepreneurship contest for new technology and environment concepts to be implemented on the A24, and the winners have already been announced.
So in the “Highway and Technology” category, the first place ๐ went to SMARTPATH โโ- Traffic Signage Innovation๐ฅ!
We won a prize of ๐๐.๐๐๐โฌ and proposed the positioning of Beacons with LED lights (powered by solar energy) to delimit the branches at the highway nodes, taking into account that on the A24 they are not lit. โThe differentiating point was exactly the fact that we were talking about a product that uses solar energyโ, says ANJE.
The competition jury was made up of six elements, Tim Vieira, CEO of Brave Generation; Stรฉphane NOIRIE, director of operations at Meridiam; Simao Pereira, General Manager of Norscut; Patrick Viellard, CEO of Egis Road Operation; Paulo Barreto, General Director of Egis Road Operation Portugal and Pedro Guerreiro, Member of the Management Board of ANJE.
We thank you in advance for this opportunity given to us to show that in Portugal we can innovate and improve the quality of our roads. ๐ต๐น
