Network for educators in product innovation
The network gathers educators and interested participants among the PIEp nodes. The purpose of the network is to promote course- and program development in the area of innovation, innovative product development as well as more general synergies between universities and educators.
A series of workshops are offered within the framework of the network, typically one every semester. PIEp typically funds several participants from each node.
Please notify the PIEp EDU coordinator (marting@PIEp.se) if you’d like to receive more information about upcoming workshops or wish to participate in the network.
