Meeting point with goals and ambitions

Meeting point with goals and ambitions

There are already many initiatives aimed at strengthening the collaboration between researchers and partners across Aalborg University. However, we want more to happen.
AAU INNOVATE is intended to be a place where everyone can meet, mature ideas, and come together to create new synergies. The ambitions are high, and the goals are clear:
- 1
We put entrepreneurship and startup culture on the agenda
It is crucial that the knowledge created at the university is brought to life in society. We ensure this by creating an open and shared field of interest for all parties and by providing students and researchers with more competencies within startup culture and entrepreneurship.
- 2
We deliver mission-driven, interdisciplinary research and education
The world needs us to relate to each other critically, with engagement, and constructively. AAU INNOVATE breaks down traditional research barriers and opens up interaction across knowledge and disciplines — and for solutions to real-world problems.
- 3
We develop an attractive innovation environment for students, researchers, and partners
AAU INNOVATE aims to be an inspiring gathering point for students, researchers, companies, investors, and startups, thereby motivating cross-cutting activities and collaborations that focus on sustainable change.
- 4
We raise the bar for physical and digital collaboration with the world around us
By virtue of its architecture alone, AAU INNOVATE will inspire new and different types of collaboration. At the same time, we will utilize the many opportunities of digitalization and create new, efficient ways of communicating. Here, the physical framework of the building will increasingly be reflected digitally as well.
