Nordic Sports Innovation Series is an annual collaboration with the University of Southern Denmark’s Sports Science & Biomechanical Engineering department to foster collaboration between university students and academics, and sports & health tech startups. Other universities are also invited to participate.
Students and startups are matched to solve real-world startup challenges and to co-create new solutions using design thinking methods. This takes place in the form of workshops facilitated by university professors and industry experts.
Beyond the workshop interactions, the program creates longer lasting relationships between students and startups. It provides startups with access to university resources and gives students a better understanding of the startup world, as well as project-work, internship and job opportunities.
