On 8 December 2023, the University of Luxembourg published its Ideation Camp 11 coverage and confirmed that Emblem had won the My Big Idea competition. The team of Daniel Michels, Miguel Curtido Linares, Saad Shakeel, and Pit Baumgot received a 1,000 EUR cash prize and advanced into the university's entrepreneurship pipeline.

This milestone matters because it marks one of the first formal recognitions of Emblem's concept inside Luxembourg's startup and academic environment. It validated the early premise that travel memories, local culture, and digital collectibles could be brought together in a more meaningful souvenir model.

The My Big Idea win also helped set up the next phase of development. It gave the team momentum, visibility, and a clearer pathway into the mentoring and ecosystem support that would shape later versions of the product and the Luxembourg Passport collection.
