The Office of Business Collaboration
AU’s interdisciplinary Business Committee is responsible for the business initiative. Business Collaboration supports the business committee to achieve the strategic objective of increased collaboration with business and industry. We facilitate collaboration between AU and municipalities, companies, public sector organisations and private organisations.
In collaboration with the rest of the business organisation at AU, we contribute to stronger collaboration across AU.
The goal is for collaboration to be meaningful and valuable for students, researchers, companies and public sector organisations. A number of areas of responsibility in this context include interdisciplinary responsibility for careers, alumni and CRM.
The Kitchen
The Kitchen supports students and researchers in start-ups and entrepreneurship. In addition, The Kitchen handles all tasks in connection with commercialisation and IP.
The Kitchen works with student entrepreneurship, and academic entrepreneurship for researchers through projects such as ‘Open Entrepreneurship’.
