Objectives
Network Intelligence (nIQ) was a system-changing methodology that developed digital competencies at the ecosystem level for innovation and networking. It empowered purpose-driven entrepreneurial people to amplify growth opportunities from the networks they built, enabling them to innovate better, faster, and achieve long-term resilience.
The project aimed to mainstream nIQ. The 2030 vision was that through Network Intelligence, a systemic impact would be created in higher education at the institutional level by integrating innovation and entrepreneurship into the core strategies of HEIs, building leadership capacity to execute them, and connecting them more effectively with their city-level ecosystems and globally.
Activities
The project was split into two phases.
The pilot phase supported:
- 5 innovative SMEs via multidisciplinary research teams
- 130 students with nIQ skills for developing innovation, fundraising, global market access including 15 students mentored
- 15 academic staff trained and 5 mentored in nIQ to embed in their HEI’s innovation/entrepreneurship education
- 15 non-academic staff trained and 5 mentored to embed nIQ in their HEI’s strategy and processes
- Establishing 2 nIQ ‘Train-the-Trainer’ centres at HEIs for mainstreaming the methodology
- Forming 1 new collaborative partnership in the Knowledge Triangle
