10 Super Talents selected for Mjärdevi Science Park
Nine businesses at Mjärdevi Science Park in Linköping Sweden have merged in order to find 10 sharp talents for a new project. The initiative is called Tech Pilots and the purpose is to bring young talents and businesses within the technology field together. During one year, these talents will closely follow the businesses and their activities.
Tech Pilots consists of 9 companies that are developing new innovative technologies. Narrative, for example, is one of the companies taking part of the project. Their life-logging camera has reached out internationally, starting at Kickstarter. Actia is another company within the project that is focused on the automotive industry and Senion Lab with their indoor positioning system.
Spread the picture of the companies and bring in new perspectives
The assignment is performed as an independent activity besides studies or work. The task is to blog and spread the image of the companies but also to give the companies new insights and bring external perspectives into their business.
- At Narrative we like to break new grounds and therefore we need to be surrounded by talents. Techpilots will be a way of connecting with talents, get new insights, but also to put Mjärdevi and Linköping on the international innovation map, says Martin Källström, CEO, Narrative.
- After a year, the companies will have gained new perspectives, access to more talents and also reached out with the world leading innovation technologies from Linköping Sweden in new channels, says Lena Miranda, CEO, Mjärdevi Science Park in Linköping Sweden.
