Web Platform for the Innovation Ecosystem of ImpactLab FHNW

Abstract

ImpactLab FHNW is the incubator that helps students in creating startups. Currently, the innovation ecosystem is growing with several stakeholders such as: - students with business ideas - students willing to support other students having business ideas - alumni, researchers, professors, and external experts that act as mentors - companies that financially support events. Keeping everything in an Excel sheet is not sustainable. Moreover, if a student has a business idea, he/she should be matched with a mentor, which is currently done manually and is time-consuming.
