Are you looking to tackle business challenges, explore new opportunities, or gain fresh insights into your organisation?
The Adam Smith Business School at the University of Glasgow is offering unique opportunities for organisations across various sectors to collaborate with their talented students through industry projects and short consultancies.
Whether you’re a private company, SME, charity, or social enterprise, their student-led projects and consultancy engagements can deliver real value, while supporting the development of future business leaders.
How can you work together?
• Industry Projects: Students work directly with your organisation, 1-on-1 to provide innovative solutions and fresh perspectives on your business needs. This takes place over an 8–10-week period during summer.
• Consultancies: Tap into the expertise of their students for shorter, focused consultancy projects designed to address specific challenges and deliver actionable outcomes. These usually involve working with a group of students and run at various points throughout the academic year, lasting from 1-8 weeks depending on the programme.
Why partner with the Adam Smith Business School?
• Innovative Solutions: Gain new perspectives and strategies tailored to your business.
• Talent Pipeline: Collaborate with students and build connections that can lead to future opportunities.
• Social Impact: They actively support partnerships with social enterprises, charities, and SMEs, helping to drive positive change within the community.
• Free: There is no cost to you/your organisation.
