DTU Skylab invites interdisciplinary students from across Denmark to join our open innovation sprint! You can sign up as a team or individual – we make sure to match you with different backgrounds into diverse teams. This collaborative innovation approach allows you to go on a team expedition, navigating the un-known and by an explorative and iterative creative development process bring new concepts and solutions to life. The challenge briefs given from our partners and sponsors are broad enough to allow your creativity to go unhindered and with in-built constraints to push and kick-start your process.
After the teams are formed, you let the creative expedition start during a 2-days innovation sprint with sparring from our 30+ invited expert mentors and process mentors. We bring you a minimum of interruption but just enough methodology for you to get inspired and to boost your development. You will finalize the sprint with a pitch training, which will prepare you for the grande OpenInnovation Finals where you get the chance to win exciting awards! Further, you can convince your challenge partner to spar with you for further development of the idea!
OpenInnovation X connects 100+ Students from higher educations, Researchers, Start-ups and Corporate Partners.
OpenInnovation Circularity (Fall 2022)
A new innovation pilot program will be launched this Fall 2022 – Open Innovation Circularity.
DTU Skylab, CSE at Copenhagen Business School and Actory at the University of Copenhagen join forces to co-host an open innovation challenge in collaboration with partners from industry, business and organizations to contribute towards sustainable change and action.
Open Innovation Circularity aims to unite 120+ talented students, PhD’s and researchers from business, science and engineering education.

In a time where students' calendars are full of activities and events, we gather all the best content in a single event. Participating in Open Innovation CIRCULARITY the students will get the entire spectrum of meeting various business partners as well as academic professionals from the 3 different institutions.

Open Innovation Circularity is a perfect example of our united potential to make significant change as institutions, and through the student body. We are thrilled to join this exciting program to lay the foundations for greater university collaboration.
