SommarMatchen (The Summer Match) is an entrepreneurship program at the business incubator LEAD, designed to help transform research from Linköping University into market ready products and services.
Over five intensive weeks, talented students from Linköping University work closely with your project, offering fresh perspectives, conducting market analyses, and mapping new opportunities.
How it works
SommarMatchen is all about giving your project the boost it needs to move forward. Together with the students, you set concrete goals—whether it’s meeting potential customers, testing your solution in real-world scenarios, or closing your first deal. This is your chance to turn research into action and take meaningful steps toward making a difference.
