Future Bites webinar to tackle collaboration between universities and businesses

FinnAgora is collaboration with a Finnish founded global company Demola on a webinar tackling the collaboration between higher education and businesses. How can these collaborations be mutually beneficial? What kind of potential do student innovations bring companies? Our experts tell us how to encourage and facilitate the potential of such collaboration with case examples from their own institutions and companies.

Future Bites: Collaboration Between Higher Education and Business Sector is a pilot in a series of webinars we are producing next year, leading up to Finnovation 2.0, a business conference FinnAgora will produce in the fall.
