COOOKIES – Collaborations & other Opportunities in Knowledge and Innovation EcoSystems

Great turnout of the Green Transition Hack

At the Green transition hack, 120 participants gathered to hack solutions for the green transition. During two full days they worked on challenges on food systems, mobility, water reuse and making sustainability reporting trustworthy and comparable. Specialist from our partner organisations supported the groups and provided feedback on their ideas.

Alfa Laval, partner for the third year, says “the Green Transition Hack provides a unique opportunity to engage with students who are focusing on some of our most pressing sustainability challenges. It’s a space for meaningful dialogue, inspiration, and learning.”

A new partner for this year, Tata Consultancy services says “We believe that collaboration between industries, startups, and academia is essential to accelerate progress toward net-zero and circular business models. By partnering with this initiative, we aim to empower new ideas, foster cross-disciplinary innovation, and support solutions that make a measurable environmental and societal impact.”

At the end of the event, three teams were selected as winners. Affan Alam, team member in one of the winning teams, said “What truly stood out to me was how people from diverse backgrounds, speaking different languages, and living different lifestyles could come together so effortlessly to collaborate, disagree, co-create, and ultimately succeed.”
