The summer course is organized in close collaboration with representatives from food companies in Denmark, representatives from various areas within food innovation system in Denmark and abroad, areas as well as scientists from different levels and research areas at Department of Food Science. This will lead to an insight into a highly innovative and leading food ecosystem in Europe, and demonstrate how to take ideas from science to the industry and from industry to science. The course is divided into two parts, a scientific part with lectures and discussions in plenum, and another part centered around group work, idea generation, idea selection and upqualification of that idea in relation to deep knowledge obtained via the lectures in the class, self studies and finally use of Business Model Canvas.
