Are you interested in innovation? Do you have an idea that you would like to develop? You can receive support from advisors at Mau Innovation. Grants are available to help students test their ideas.

Develop your idea

At Malmö University, you can get support for concrete processes in areas such as:

  • Idea development
  • Financing and grants
  • Partnerships
  • Prototyping
  • How to protect your idea

How to protect your idea?

What is a patent, and how do you obtain one? What do all the symbols mean? There are many questions surrounding intellectual property, protection and rights. Some ideas should be kept secret, while others can be shared to help develop and refine them.

Contact Joa Falke to get support

FutureMakers welcomes students to share their ideas for services, products, social innovations, or anything else they can think of. It doesn't matter how developed your idea is. What matters most is your vision and your ability to present it convincingly.

Inspired by traditional hackathons, the Stormathon competition involves creating new ideas and solutions alongside others in a short space of time. All teams are working on the same project, with the support of innovation coaches.

Stormathon (Mau innovation)

Students are studying colour and perspective.

At Storm, you can explore and try new things as part of your studies or as an extracurricular activity.

Drivhuset provides free advice to help you develop your idea or get your project off the ground.

The Leapfrogs Scholarship, worth 40,000 Swedish kronor, allows students to develop their ideas over the summer. It allows you to work full-time on your project while receiving coaching in idea development.

Applications for Sten K. Johnson scholarships can be submitted for projects with a clear plan, timetable and budget. Grants range in size from approximately 15,000 to 300,000 SEK. Applicants must live or work in Skåne.
