Crafted by Project Leaders UIIN, the Data Management Plan is a living document that details what data Accelerate Future HEI will generate and make accessible for verification and re-use, and how it will be curated and preserved. The main elements of this plan are (i)Identification of data types and research deliverables, (ii) findability, (iii) accessibility, (iv) interoperability, (v) reusability and (vi) curation and storage/preservation costs.
Introducing the first joint European policy brief summarising insights from the three European acceleration service Horizon projects—CATALISI, Accelerate Future HEI, and aUPaEU.
ACCELERATION SERVICES IN SUPPORT OF THE INSTITUTIONAL TRANSFORMATION OF HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS
It focuses on the institutional transformation of Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) aligning with the European Research Area (ERA) policy agenda, aiming to enhance cooperation, research capacity, and innovation through various joint methodologies and partnerships.
Our first result is based on pre-scanning and focus groups where each testing partner developed a strategic vision towards becoming an Entrepreneurial & Innovative University. Here you can discover each institution’s strategic vision statement that describes their desired transformation high-level objective as well as their motivations, ambitions and strengths to achieve it.
This synthesis report summarises the findings and insights, emphasizing common and specific challenges associated with the institutional transformation across all testing partners. It includes the first year of research and activities undertaken by the nine HEI testing partners including pre-scanning, and asset mapping, desired future state focus groups and a current state survey.
The key learnings and findings are presented under the following areas, Entrepreneurial Activities, Entrepreneurial Mindset, Organisational Support and Impact & External Ecosystem.
Following the Roadmap Workshops with the nine testing partners, the project leaders at UIIN have put together this draft analysis report of the initial findings on the common challenges and solutions to becoming more entrepreneurial and innovative higher education institutions.
“The roadmap workshops provided an excellent opportunity for the testing partners to reflect on their current and desired future states, based on the WP2 activities and analysis, and begin to pave the way for their institutional transformation over the next three years.”
After a series of Roadmap Workshops with our nine testing partners, the project leaders at UIIN compiled a final analysis report, uncovering key insights into the shared challenges and actionable solutions for transforming higher education institutions into thriving hubs of entrepreneurship and innovation.

This Capacity Building & Knowledge Exchange Program is dedicated to professional development, peer learning and knowledge exchange in the areas relevant to institutional transformation towards an Entrepreneurial & Innovative University. The overall learning framework includes the creation of learning experiences in the form of the Accelerate Training program as well as peer-learning and networking-focused Cohort Knowledge Exchange events bringing all testing partners together. It also provides an overview of the target groups, training domains and approach, as well as the certification model and delivery plan.
The Monitoring and Evaluation plan led by TUM International includes an impact evaluation strategy that sets out the evaluation guidelines and criteria for Accelerate Future HEI. The methodology, indicators and independent Board of Experts will provide evidence of the impact and value-added of the acceleration services and implementation activities undertaken by the testing partners.
This Communication, Dissemination and Sustainability plan, prepared by the Work Package leader Momentum, provides an in-depth dissemination strategy for Accelerate Future HEI. Key components include:
This updated Communication, Dissemination and Sustainability Plan includes a review of the successful dissemination activities conducted in the first year including the development of the project website and social media channels, the creation of a corporate design guide, and the production of promotional materials, highlighting the initial steps taken to establish a cohesive project identity and engage with the target audiences.
