Hacking Higher Education
The renowned competition for higher education innovations is here again!
This year we want to hear about innovative collaborations between higher education institutions and the rest of the world. In other words, innovations that increase this synergy.
The collaborations can be for example with companies or with larger communities such as alumni.

Congratulations to the first
HIGHER EDUCATION DEVELOPER OF THE YEAR
from 2019:
Bazaar
Challenge / need: What if we would embrace the competence and potential value of our partners, stakeholders and community more, and take the collaboration to a whole new level? What if we would turn the versatile data, information and competence base of our university community and our external society into richer, more sustainable and more impactful learning and collaboration opportunities? What if we would offer a digital platform to support all this, and even more?
Solution: Bazaar concept integrates the alumni to the university community, enables more streamlined and automated matchmaking to build competence, to take on challenges, to create new business opportunities, to co-create and to co-innovate. Bazaar also enables enriching the learning offering through enabling 3rd parties to offer their competence as trusted members of the Bazaar-community.
The platform includes the following features:
Alumni Session and Collaboration Pass
Matchmaking tool
Marketplace
Next steps: This solution is in the first stage of development and will be built one block at a time. First, we will complete the proof of concept, then, create a minimum viable product. This is an agile and iterative design process that includes much testing, validation, and engagement of key stakeholders.
