On 27–29 October, the Erasmus+ LISS24 consortium gathered at Universitat Politècnica de València (UPV) for its final project meeting. Partners from 10 universities across six countries reviewed the results, discussed sustainability and explored future collaboration opportunities.

🎯 Key achievements of LISS24:

✅ 11 new and 2 updated B2B sales and innovation courses

✅ 6 Sales Laboratories established at partner universities in Armenia and Georgia

✅ National and international student competitions, innovative teaching methods and stronger university–business collaboration

✅ New research, publications and international partnerships

The discussions in Valencia focused not only on what has been achieved, but also on what will continue after the project ends: the use of Sales Laboratories, integration of new courses into curricula, business collaboration and joint research initiatives.

🙏 Special thanks to our hosts Elena De la Poza and Ruijing Wang at UPV for the warm welcome, and to Timo Holopainen for facilitating discussions on future project ideas!
