= '''Facilitating University - Industry Collaboration''' =

== '''Brand Idea''' ==

Brand Idea is an annual competition for creative and innovative ideas, developed in two directions:

Brand Idea Accelerator – Presentation of projects for alternative advertising campaigns with an upcoming realization, developed by students.

Brand Idea Hackathon – Real cases will be solved by students in the frames of the competition days. The contractors are representatives of successful business organizations, so the winner will have the chance to work together with the sponsor and the opportunity for a future realization.

== '''UEBN''' ==

The university develops entrepreneurship and project oriented thinking both for the internal (students, teachers and administration) and for the external collaborators. This requires constant search and finding of new forms of cooperation between students and teachers and the business, the non-profit organizations and the public administration. The UEBN closes the gap. The main goal of the project is the creation and support of sustainable platform for cooperation of the university and the business, incl. establishment of productive dialogue with the external environment, focused on the satisfaction of needs of the parties and on helping the successful realization of the university graduates

== '''Business in action''''''by AIESEC''' ==

Main objective is to create strong links between the corporate sector and students in the city. The event is a real business simulation due to the fact that within it the students have the opportunity to work on real business case studies provided by the leading companies in Bulgaria.

= '''Strategy 1: Communication ''' =

'''Project "Student Mentoring" '''

We want to organize meetings where students help students. They will be divided into two groups – mentors and regular attendees. The mentors represent different departments and can help regular attendees with lectures, extra information and in general, they can give advice concerning the whole university experience. Also at those meetings students can get information about masters and PhD programs from people that are part of those programs. 

We believe that with the project "Student Mentoring" students will have the opportunity to develop their communication skills. This is because part of the project is so-called "speed networking". When each participant has to exchange information, it is extremely important that he/she will submit his / her question in order to get the best possible and comprehensive response. Also, mentors will have the opportunity to learn how to transmit a large amount of important information without losing anything.

To realize this idea we need just a handful of things: a place (the cafeteria), a university department that is willing to participate in this event, some promotional posts (free ones) in Facebook and a poster for the university entrance. 

= '''Strategy 2: Raising awareness about environmental pollution ''' =

'''Project: "Separate waste collection"'''

Environmental pollution is one of the most basic and topical issues of modern times. In recent years, this issue has been increasingly addressed. That is why we would like to give a good example to the other universities in the country, to our fellow citizens and especially to the younger generation by starting to collect waste separately at University of  Economics - Varna. This will reduce our environmental footprint and will help to maintain the reputation of the university.

The project will be carried out by placing baskets for the separate collection of the waste in the dormitories of the university and the three campuses. Events in this direction will be organized and pictures of polluted landscapes will be projected to inform the students.
