This summer, I have the amazing opportunity to attend the European Innovation Academy (EIA) in Porto, Portugal, a world-renowned entrepreneurship program that brings together students, mentors, and innovators from around the globe.

From July 5th  to August 8th, I’ll be immersed in an intensive, hands-on startup incubator, working alongside peers from 60+ countries and guided by mentors from top companies like Google, Amazon, and Microsoft. I’ll help build and launch a real startup, gaining practical entrepreneurial experience, global connections, and 6 academic credits.

This program is more than a study abroad trip, it's a launchpad for my personal, educational, and career journey. I’m passionate about turning ideas into solutions, and EIA will equip me with the tools to make that happen. It’s also a unique chance to explore Portugal’s rich culture, architecture, and community known for creativity and resilience.

Your support will help cover tuition, travel, and living expenses for this life-changing experience. Whether you can give a little or a lot, every bit brings me one step closer to making this dream a reality.
Thank you for believing in me and investing in the journey!
