The “Entrepreneurial Challenges” Tour stops at the Casa del Alumno

📍 Today, March 25th, the Casa del Alumno is stop number 2 of the “Entrepreneurial Challenges” Tour

The Princess of Girona Foundation is holding an innovation session at our venue, where young people aged 16 to 30 are working in teams to design creative solutions for the recovery of municipalities affected by the DANA storm.

For 3 hours, participants have applied the Lombard method, an innovative methodology from Silicon Valley, to turn their ideas into concrete proposals. At the end, a jury will select the most promising initiatives, which will receive mentoring and training for six months.

This tour, taking place across various municipalities from March 24th to 27th, aims to promote youth entrepreneurship as a driving force for change and territorial recovery.

Tradition and Celebration: Mascletà and Fallas Queens’ Parade

The spirit of Fallas was felt strongly on March 10, 2025, around the Student House. At 2:00 PM, a spectacular mascletà (a traditional Valencian firecracker show) was held, gathering dozens of students and university community members. The thunderous sound of fireworks filled the air, marking the beginning of a day full of tradition.

After the pyrotechnic display, the university’s Fallas Queens paraded through the campus, accompanied by the rector’s team, including several vice-rectors, as well as representatives of the Student Council. The parade, which passed through the Palm Walk and the Central Plaza, delighted attendees with traditional music and the vibrant spirit of Fallas.

This event, organized in collaboration with the university’s Fallas community, reaffirmed the institution’s commitment to Valencian culture and traditions.
