Students & Client Companies
We have organised other Nordplus IPs around entrepreneurship and innovation and here is what our student & clients had to say about the experience.
“We gained real knowledge in understanding how business actually works, how to use the Lean Canvas and to come up with innovative solutions.”
“We gained lot of innovative ideas and business models for our goal of encouraging increased sustainability in the North-East of Iceland with better utilization of resources and increased knowledge of how the community, the environment and economy can function together.”
“Academically the course has raised my interest in many aspects of business innovation and market segmentation principles. A total eye opener”
“I was impressed with the students review of our business and recommendations on how Lean Startup methodologies could aid our business to grow and enter international markets.”
