Important results from the project
The aim of the project was: 1 To gather a constellation of partners to act as one with a purpose to stimulate the development of Swedish innovation whitin the field of sport and health 2. To carry out a competition that showed the possibilities and demands within the field, and creates examples off the strong results it can lead to. Based on these aims and purposes, we have secluded good results, even though, we wish we could have engaged more partners already in this phase.
Expected long term effects
A great result when it comes to partner constitution, 55 qualified competition contributions, good commitment, strong nominations and all winning concepts of high standards. The effects are a strong constellation behind the arrangement and a competition that has the possibility to become a strong brand. We are expecting more partners to get involved, broader reach for future arrangement and get even stronger contributions. On the long term the effects will be new products and services with international reach and a competition as a important tool for future development.
Approach and implementation
The design have worked well from the perspective of good contribution of partners who all pitched in with expertise from their areas and networks. Planning as well as the general concept did flow without problem. The key for this was collaboration between partners with different competences. This base serves for further and continous development, which, in writing moment, all partners seems positive to.
