The MYSTICAL DANUBE – Green and Mystical Danube
Storytelling Route project took part in the Startup Fair – Plovdiv 2026,
held on 28 April 2026 at the University of Food Technologies. The event,
organised jointly by Plovdiv’s leading universities, brought together start‑ups,
investors, academic institutions and young entrepreneurs in the region’s
largest forum dedicated to innovation and entrepreneurial development.
MYSTICAL DANUBE was presented through an information
stand located in the expo area of the fair, where visitors had the
opportunity to explore:
·
the objectives, scope and achievements of the
project;
·
the transnational Green & Mystical Danube
Storytelling Route;
·
opportunities for engagement of local communities,
businesses and young innovators;
·
the digital tools and resources developed within the
project;
·
the pilot activities implemented in Plovdiv Region.
Throughout the day, the project team distributed promotional
and informational materials, including brochures, visual content and QR
codes directing visitors to the project’s online platform. The stand attracted
considerable interest from students, start‑ups and representatives of the
corporate and academic sectors, who recognised the project’s innovative
approach to combining cultural heritage, digital technologies and sustainable
regional development.
Participation in Startup Fair – Plovdiv 2026
significantly enhanced the visibility of MYSTICAL DANUBE among young
professionals and entrepreneurial networks, while also strengthening
partnerships within the broader innovation ecosystem of the Danube Region.
