Newly established start-ups need accelerated growth to succeed. Accelerated international growth is difficult for start-ups since they lack networks, contacts, resources and skills.
With NOCCA – Novel Opportunities for new Company Creation and Accelerated growth – a new innovation curriculum will be jointly developed and implemented in Helsinki, Tallinn and Riga comprising of three consecutive multidisciplinary and intergenerational hackathons and idea camps that mix students from the participating countries and organizations with the purpose of creating new cross-border companies and further engaging the innovation ecosystem further.
