P0 – Hafelekar (AT)

 

Hafelekar was founded in 2001. Hafelekar combines expertise in managerial, social and educational sciences. Customers are entrepreneurs, business companies, non-profit organisations as well as clients in the public sector. Hafelekar is mainly engaged in the following lines of business: Consulting, Research, Studies, Surveys, Evaluation, Validation of informal and non-formal learning, Development of (ICT-) training models, Curricula design,  Analysis of training needs, Vocational orientation, Career guidance, Process Management, EU-funded projects & Innovative Technology projects.

 

We have been working on the innovation management theme for many years. We accompanied many SMEs (on national level) in so called "Innovative Technology Projects" and learned that there is a real need to DO innovation: to understand what innovation is about, to enable SMEs/MEs to set up a tailored innovation strategy and to implement the necessary processes. We are convinced that now is the right time to work on this theme on a European level.

 

A close cooperation exists with the University of Innsbruck (Department for Knowledge Organisation) in the area of qualitative social research.  Hafelekar also cooperates with the Management Centre Innsbruck, a college of applied sciences and the Standortagentur Tirol with its clusters. Furthermore, Hafelekar is integrated in a dense network of VET and related institutions and bodies.
