Support for students
At Malmö University, we believe that innovation is a vision that creates value and contributes to a more sustainable society. Entrepreneurship is the journey that transforms that vision into reality. Here, we are not just dreamers—we take action. We challenge ourselves to look beyond what is in front of us and ask the question: What if?
Explore your ideas
At Malmö University, we foster collaboration with Drivhuset Malmö to empower students in their pursuit of idea development and entrepreneurship. Drivhuset provides invaluable guidance and support, available to all Malmö University students. Whether you’re launching a project or refining an existing idea, Drivhuset offers a wealth of resources.
Take the next step
When you’re prepared for the next phase, Malmö University’s Innovation Advisers step in to reinforce your support network. This stage involves testing and validating your idea, as well as seeking potential collaborators. MaU Innovation equips you with a comprehensive toolbox, including guidance, methodologies, networking opportunities, scholarships, and financing options.
Charting Your Course
Once your idea matures and enters the implementation phase, our support team assists you in identifying the optimal path forward. Whether it’s Malmö’s incubators, Malmö University’s Holding Company, or an intrapreneurial collaboration, we guide you toward the right runway for success.
