What strategies can be adopted in rural areas to encourage innovation? “Graubünden instead of the big city” – our Chairman Rudolf Minsch talks to FHGR about challenges and potential.
The interview in the FH Graubünden “Wissensplatz” article with our president of the board emphasizes that the region’s strength lies not in individual highly specialized experts, but in “decathletes” – people who combine multiple skills and respond flexibly to new challenges. Targeted training and further education produce such all-rounders, who bring both technical know-how and business acumen to the table. This promotes a view beyond disciplinary boundaries, creates the basis for interdisciplinarity, and forms the central driver of innovation.
Continuous innovation and knowledge exchange are important for Graubünden. That is why clear strategies and competence building for start-ups and partnerships are needed – and above all cooperation and exchange: “It’s all about people” – and that is why these decathletes are needed.
