Skills2Scale is a Project designed to empower HEIs to play a leading role in the development and implementation of Beyond 5G networks and applications. Through a range of activities, such as training programmes, peer-learning events, mentoring, and acceleration, the Project aims to equip HEIs with the knowledge, skills, and networks necessary to support the development of the Beyond 5G ecosystem.

The Project’s goal is to foster institutional engagement and change, strengthen partnerships, contribute to developing innovations and businesses, enhance the quality of innovation and entrepreneurial education, and support knowledge sharing. By doing so, the Project aims to develop a skilled workforce in the field of Beyond 5G technology, which will help drive innovation and economic growth.

The Project’s transferability plan outlines a detailed strategy for scaling up activities within participating institutions during the Project’s funding period and beyond. This includes increasing the number of activities and participants in the IVAP during phase 2, and developing a plan for scaling up from August 2024 until 2030.

The Project’s dissemination and communication activities will target a wide range of stakeholders, including the scientific community, students, innovation ecosystems, financial actors, and the public at large. By sharing Project outcomes and research findings, the Project aims to create a sustainable and impactful ecosystem for Beyond 5G technology.

Overall, the Skills2Scale Project aims to create a collaborative environment that empowers HEIs to contribute to the development of the Beyond 5G ecosystem. The Project’s activities will equip HEIs with the skills, knowledge, and networks necessary to drive innovation, foster economic growth, and contribute to the development of a skilled workforce in the field of Beyond 5G technology.
