InnoHub explained in 20 seconds

Have you discovered a need, thought of a solution, or do you simply have a great idea? InnoHub is UiT's meeting place for idea development, interdisciplinary collaboration, and solutions for the future.

We connect students, researchers, and clinicians with experts and advisors in innovation and entrepreneurship. Our goal is to elevate ideas to make a difference in real life.

InnoHub is sponsored by UiT and Troms County Municipality (Troms fylkeskommune) and a collaboration between UiT, the University Hospital of North Norway (UNN) and Norinnova.
