This is your chance to apply your academic expertise to work with internal communication,
digital communication and communication within the field of sustainability
You are one of many students from the IVK department who will be meeting virtually on Monday 27 April, Wednesday 29 April and Thursday 30 April. In partnership with your fellow students, you will be using your academic expertise to find solutions to problems facing a variety of companies.
You and the other participants will be divided into groups. On Monday 27 April you will be introduced to a working method called “design thinking” by Lasse Chor from Happy 42. Wednesday and Thursday you will be given the chance to work on a specific problem and we will end the case-competition with each group pitching their solution to a panel of judges.
Taking part in this case competition is a good idea because:
Lasse Chor is a Danish entrepreneur who started his first company at the age of 13, and has since then been heavily involved in the Danish and global entrepreneurship ecosystem.
Through his current company Happy42 Lasse is currently mentor for a number of startups around the world, and advisor to a handful of large corporations including some Fortune 500 companies.
Lately Lasse also turned his attention to investments and he’s currently active as a private angel investor.
Bonus info is that Lasse’s mom thinks that he’s is the best son in the world.
