'''[3] make room for the week in schedule'''
== Project #4 - University Innovation Day ==
During our research on TUHH's landscape canvas, our team realized how cumbersome it is for students to identify all of the relevant resources that are supposed to support them on their journey to becoming an entrepreneur. Some of the information is not even available on the internet. Hence, we figure that students are missing information regarding TUHH innovation ecosystem. This includes the following pieces of information:
* Students barely know what kind of innovative research projects the institutes are currently working on
* Students barely know what innovative activities TUHH is supporting in the region
* Students barely know which startups emerged from TUHH
* Students barely know what kind of entrepreneurship classes exist
* Students barely know about innovation hubs at TUHH or in the region
Consequently, '''University Innoavation Day (UID)''' was prototyped which is an annual innovation fair aimed at letting students experience all aspects of TUHH's innovation ecosystem. Simultaneously, the relevant information is permanently made available on a website.

'''TUHH Ideenschmiede''' will be a virtual and physical space for students to come together, discuss ideas, brainstorm or host I&E events to inspire others. This space should be available to all TUHH students to visit and should be organised by students (in cooperation with a professor). An example for such a space is of course the [https://www.utwente.nl/en/designlab/contact/ DesignLab at the University of Twente]. The TUHH Ideenschmiede will make the topic of Innovation and Entrepreneurship accessible to all TUHH students and thus, will expand the students' horizon.
However, since building a space requires a lot of resources, we want to start with the following steps:
=== Next steps<br/> ===
'''[1] Demand inquiry:''' Develop, send out & evaluate a questionnaire for students to identify needs for a virtual & physical exchange space
'''[2] Development & test:''' Develop a regular ZOOM format to exchange ideas & test
'''[3] Regular operation:''' Offer regular ZOOM meetings; plan & gather things required for a "ambulant" creativity space
'''[4] Prototype & Test:''' Start offering a "ambulant" Creativity Space on campus, e.g. Ideenschmiede Lunch Dates etc.
'''[5] Implementation:''' Raise money & build physical space for TUHH Ideenschmiede (this is a long-term goal)
Our main goal with this space in long-term is to become a creative meeting point at the TUHH for students to get in contact with the topic of I&E, especially for bachelor students. The objective with the current list of next steps is to first test the idea, get an overview of the students wishes and needs and have an evidence to show the investors that such a place is required at TUHH.
The following points are our strategic priorities with this project:
=== Strategic priorities<br/> ===
'''[1] Broaden the horizon''' Connect students with different interests and fields of studies
'''[2] Be creative''' Inspire students to work and think differently
'''[3] Build a community''' Build a network of I&E experts at the TUHH
'''[4] Be part of the change''' Enable students to crate change at the TUHH but also in their personal life
