From University To Unicorn 2021

Page 3

About: From University to Unicorn Danish universities already deliver world-class research in everything from artificial intelligence and quantum computing to cryptography and robots. But how do we link this knowledge to the business world in order to create real change at scale? With the magazine “From University to Unicorn”, we highlight the unique innovation opportunity that comes from the universities. We take a closer look at the students and researchers who translate their knowledge into companies that have the potential to become the next unicorn. How it affects the established business community as well as Denmark’s competitiveness at large. And how the efforts within digital entrepreneurship across universities contribute to shaping the talent pool of the future. Enjoy!
