Collaborate with us

We are convinced that an open university and close collaboration with the outside world are good for everyone. That is why we are happy to collaborate with companies, organisations and universities. Experience has taught us that these meetings create great value, both for you personally, your organisation – and for the School of Business and Economics' students and researchers.

Small and medium-sized enterprises are the focus of the School of Business and Economics' new initiative SmålandsNavet. Many companies in a number of different industries are facing major challenges, but also great opportunities. We are in a time of major technological changes, globalisation, climate change, demands for new investments and new business models. This will require adjustment, renewal and new skills.
