UWS is incredibly proud to be working with Demola Global. Demola Scotland, hosted by the University of the West of Scotland is a direct result of this collaboration and it is a vehicle to deliver a completely new level of developing innovation through multidisciplinary student teams, focusing on emerging and future challenges that are yet to be even recognised. In a rapidly changing world, it is imperative, yet incredibly difficult, for organisations of all sizes to anticipate what comes next and this is where Demola student teams really excel. It is thus unsurprising that Demola has become a global community and I cannot wait to see an increasing number of Scottish students and businesses benefiting from the vast collaboration opportunities it offers.
