🎓 CONGRATULATIONS to the first graduates of SmplAcademy!

After a month of learning about, and contributing to, our 5-Day Prototyping Service, we’re releasing our inaugural cohort back into wilds of education.

SmplAcademy is partnership between us and Noroff‘s School of Technology & Digital Media, to help prepare the next generation of digital product design wizards.

🧙‍♀️ We labelled it ‘Digital Hogwarts’… mainly to get media attention, but you get the point.

High fives all round for Silje, Charlotte, & Maria, as well as Bradford, Sam, Libré, Linki for making it happen, and Mikkel and Jeanne who helped us develop the idea, even if they didn’t know it…

Our MD, Andreas, praised the students, saying: “The students were really impressive… even Bjørn Ivar said so.” High praise indeed.

During the course, our brilliant protégés:

🛠️ learned how to transform ideas into reality, at high speed
🚀 worked with us on real projects with actual clients, getting hands-on experience in a professional setting
🤓 received personalised mentorship and additional tutoring to maximise their learning and skill development during the placement

Well done to everyone involved, including everyone who acted as mentors along the way: Andreas, Bjørn Ivar, Jingjing, Leonardo, and Giorgiana.

The SmplAcademy will reopen its doors in the new year for more advice, prototypes, and cake…
