Technological change is a long-term systemic process that will have a profound impact on all business management practices and the economy, regardless of the industrial sector in which companies are located and the institutional context in which they operate. Scientific input and collaboration with business and public sector organisations are critical to the exploration and development of new business models and forms of work organisation, new skills and new performance management, and legal and regulatory frameworks at regional, national and EU levels. The idea of the KTU SEB Business Clinics is based on:

The need to share the knowledge and practices developed by the KTU School of Economics and Business together with its partners and the results of relevant research with business and public sector organisations;
The need to incorporate original business practices into the regular study process;
A strategic commitment to developing competencies in change leadership, strategic and systems thinking.

Hands-On (hereinafter – the Project) is an optional module for second-year master’s students of the KTU School of Economics and Business and other stakeholders (students of other KTU faculties, ECIU network students, and business representatives) who intend to deepen the competencies of socio-economic assessment, strategic management, organizational design, project management, change management, and investment evaluation.
