This third issue highlights the tangible impact of our acceleration services in action. From reflections on our Austrian Transnational Partner Meeting (TPM) and hands-on TPM workshops, to an in-depth Institutional Transformation Acceleration Plan (ITAP) case study and partner mentoring experiences, we showcase how institutional transformation is unfolding across our consortium. A key feature of this edition is our Joint Policy Briefing, developed together with CATALISI and aUPaEU. Drawing on three years of collaboration and experimentation, it presents shared lessons and recommendations to strengthen institutional transformation in alignment with the European Research Area.
Our second issue marks the halfway point on our transformation journey. We reflect on our recent transnational partner meeting, where nine HEI partners shared updates on their Institutional Transformation Acceleration Projects (ITAPs). Workshops led by TUM International and Momentum focused on monitoring, evaluation, dissemination, and impact-driven strategies. Partners are actively pilot-testing Acceleration Services through coaching, working groups, and investment strategy workshops. UIIN reports on their Accelerate Training Programme and the success of biannual Cohort Knowledge Exchange events. We spotlight three partners and provide updates on our sister projects aUPaEU and CATALISI.
