Sustainable Innovation Camp
Nordic case competition
June 5-7, 2024
Online camp
About the event
Our first online camp is SIA’s response to an increasingly digitized world and the realization that during summer international students in Denmark often fly home.
Our Nordic Case Competition is open for all university students in the Nordics and it is a chance for anyone, no matter location, to become a Sustainable Innovation Ambassador.
Consisting of a 3-day challenge, both the first and the third day will will be held live, while on the second day students will work on their case with the aid of digital resources in our resources library.
This approach will allow students who are not physically in Denmark to take part in the case solving experience while experimenting different cases and ways of approaching sustainable innovation throughout the Nordic region.
Circular Economy
The circular economy stands as a cornerstone of sustainable business operations, especially in light of the EU’s new reporting directives, which prioritize sustainability and transparency. Embracing circularity is no longer just a choice but a necessity for businesses aiming to thrive in an era of heightened environmental awareness and regulatory scrutiny. By transitioning towards circular business models, companies can unlock a plethora of benefits, from reducing resource dependence and waste generation to fostering innovation and resilience.
By understanding the circular economy’s emphasis on resource efficiency, waste reduction, and regenerative practices, participants will be empowered to implement sustainable solutions that not only mitigate environmental impact but also enhance social equity and governance transparency.
Through workshops and practical experience, we will provide participants with tools to navigate the complexities of Ultimately, the camp serves as a catalyst for preparing youth to lead impactful careers that contribute to Denmark’s ambitious green transition and global sustainability goals.
