The challenges require skills for change

Greenland is in an upheaval in which organizations must be developed, business understanding is enhanced and the administration is prepared for independence. Hence the need for intensified innovation and enhanced business development. As the world's most sparsely populated country with a population that is not linked by roads and other traditional infrastructure, Greenland is a phenomenal pilot area for particular new digital solutions. Be it in education, health services, micro-production or digital manners in general.

Innovation Lab

In 8 years Innovation Lab in Aarhus has established itself as Denmark's stable, well known and wide lookout point towards new technologies, new business models and new user insight. Nuuk and Greenland is for Innovation Lab a profoundly interesting opportunity to bring the international network of companies, research organizations and media houses in use and try out the digital opportunities in a wild and awesome scale.

Innovation Lab.gl

Innovation Lab.gl - is established in collaboration between KompetenceKompagniet in Nuuk and Innovation Lab in Aarhus. In this community we aim to be the preferred resource center in the development of Best Pracitice solutions for institutions and industry, in cooperation with Greenlandic and international companies.

Involvement

The goal is to launch 2-3 pilot projects and 1-2 business projects with international partners on an annual basis. Pilot projects will provide new perspectives and support the idea of Greenland being a pilot area from a digital development point of view.
