Seminar 1: Universities’ role in innovation ecosystems
The seminar will showcase diverse collaborative settings and initiatives to create innovation ecosystems, discuss success factors and challenges faced by stakeholders and identify enablers or solutions to overcome current obstacles.
Universities, as hubs of knowledge creation and dissemination, play a fundamental role in driving innovation forward. Through collaborative research, technology transfer initiatives, and entrepreneurship support programmes, universities serve as catalysts for transforming ideas into real-world solutions.
Examples from initiatives implemented within the Circle U. European University Alliance will illustrate ways in which transnational cooperation in higher education contribute to the innovation ecosystem through research and student engagement.
