The Great Transition: successful conclusion to the SMI group projects

The Great Transition is an experience that brings all School of Management and Innovation first students into direct interaction with contemporary grand challenges and their impact for the world of business and for themselves as citizens.

Working through the compass of the Sustainable Development Goals, all students think, dream and act towards a world that would be both more sustainable and responsible.

527 students in 106 group projects worked on issues like food quality, circularity, loneliness, energy efficiency, poverty and inequalities, developing projects that combined purpose and business. 

The Great Transition experience ended this year on January 22nd with the presentation in front of a Jury of 12 nominee projects
