Skills2Scale

Deep Tech Empowerment for Higher Education Institutes

 

Skills2Scale is a project designed to empower Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) to play a leading role in the development and implementation of Beyond 5G networks and applications. Through a range of activities such as training programs, peerlearning events, mentoring, and acceleration, the project aims to equip HEIs with the knowledge, skills, and networks necessary to support the development of the Beyond 5G ecosystem. The project’s goal is to foster institutional engagement and change, strengthen partnerships, contribute to developing innovations and businesses, enhance the quality of innovation and entrepreneurial education, and support knowledge sharing. By doing so, the project aims to develop a skilled workforce in the field of Beyond 5G technology, which will help drive innovation and economic growth. The project’s transferability plan outlines a detailed strategy for scaling up the project’s activities within participating institutions during the project’s funding period and beyond.

A number of public events, workshops, lecture performances and other busy events are organised throughout the project. Below are a few examples of what the Skill2Scale project has already been able to organise.
