Important results from the project
In the scope of this project, preparations for the application to Meeting Project Co-Create the Future of Education were carried out. A market analysis was implemented in order to refine the hypothesis of the test market and identify prospective meeting participants. A value proposition was tested on selected entrepreneurs and need identifiers. It was established that there is an interest to attend a Meeting Project, and that an application will be submitted as a next step. It was decided to focus on innovation related to digital tools for learning and teaching in the age group 12-18.

Approach and implementation
- Exploring prospective company leads gave us continuous insights and inspiration on how to go about the test market and its actors. - It proved challenging to explain the purpose, objectives, and design of the Meeting Project in a simple way towards the entrepreneurs. The presentation was tested on selected people and further developed based on the input. - There is a great interest to participate among the need identifiers. - The team members joint pre-understanding of the two participants groups proved to be key in the preparations and design of the meeting setup and processes.
