Partners
Built in collaboration. Designed to evolve.
ELVA is built together with others. From the beginning, it has been developed as a testbed where organisations, educators, and practitioners work side by side. The model grows through real collaboration — shaped by the people and challenges involved, not by a fixed blueprint.
The focus
Elva focuses on connecting education to real-world challenges through collaboration between academia and industry. The aim is to develop practical capabilities in AI and sustainability that enable participants to contribute to the green transition.
A platform in motion
ELVA is between chapters. We're rethinking format, audience, and timing — while keeping the hybrid intelligence model at the core. The next iteration will involve partners who want to contribute to real work and help shape what learning looks like in practice.
The model evolves through use. Each iteration adds clarity, depth, and direction.
Who we build it with
Elva takes shape through a mix of partners, each contributing in different ways:
Educational and academic partners
Ensure programme quality, structure, and alignment with recognised standards. Academics and educators are present not just as advisors but as active contributors to how the programme is designed and delivered.
Industry and public sector partners
Bring in challenges that are currently being worked on — not case studies, but ongoing situations that require decisions, trade-offs, and input.
Partners contribute with real problem contexts, domain expertise, and access to systems where the work has actual consequences. They take part in shaping the challenges, guiding the work, and evaluating outcomes together with the learners.
Learning and research partners
Add expertise in areas such as AI, creativity, systems thinking, and leadership, connecting participants to current thinking and methods — and ensuring the programme stays at the frontier of what is known and practiced.
Together, this creates a learning environment grounded in real conditions, where academia, industry, and society contribute on equal terms.
What partners gain
Working with ELVA creates value in multiple directions.
Partners get access to people trained to navigate complexity, work with AI in practical contexts, and take responsibility for decisions.
They gain new angles on their own challenges through external perspectives, fast iterations, and interdisciplinary thinking.
They also get early visibility into emerging capabilities, ways of working, and how learning can be structured differently.
The collaboration itself becomes a way to explore and test new approaches.
Partners help shape what comes next
As we develop the next iteration of ELVA, partners play an active role — contributing challenges, contexts, and perspectives that inform how the model evolves.
The model develops through use. Each iteration adds clarity, depth, and direction.
Interested in partnering with ELVA?
We work with organisations that want to engage in real work and contribute to how learning develops in practice.
We collaborate with organisations that:
- —Contribute to the development of new forms of education and learning, in dialogue with academia and educators
- —Engage with real-world contexts by bringing forward challenges and environments for student learning
- —Seek to connect with and shape future talent through active collaboration and exchange
