In the UNITeD project we are interested in how entrepreneurship and innovation could be made more visible in universities and the practices brought more broadly to the awareness of actors both inside and outside our universities.   

In universities, conducting research and related publishing activities is the clearest indicator of the dissemination of science, and the second is teaching, but how could cooperation with companies and becoming an entrepreneur be promoted in universities and what kind of benefits would it have?  

• Through cooperation with companies, research results can be put into practice immediately and new practical problems can be brought to the attention of researchers, for which new information could be obtained and/or new innovations could be developed with the help of science.   

• By telling companies about research in a popular way, it is possible for researchers to be employed directly by companies and the opportunity for deeper cooperation with universities.   

• By implementing student projects in companies, companies will have a first-hand –perspective on  students' skills and the latest research information.  

Benefits arising from entrepreneurship:   

• Through entrepreneurial and proactive action, the researcher can share their research and expertise in such a way that it can be understood even without knowledge of the research field   

• Through entrepreneurial and proactive action, the researcher knows how to utilize htheir research field while working for an external organization   

• Through entrepreneurship, the researcher can sell their own expertise to companies and be useful to them in the way that suits them best
