A few weeks ago, we welcomed students from Malmö University’s Leadership for Sustainability and Leadership & Organization master's programs to Ödet for a study visit. It was inspiring to witness the beginning of their journey, which reminded us of the co-founders' experiences three years ago, when Jed Manguera Vaishnavi Srinivasan and Maximilian Pangerl started as students of the Leadership for Sustainability programme. Today, with sustainable initiatives like Ödet and Hajk , we're happy to work towards making our impact within the region. During our discussions, we shared insights and experiences on how leadership and collaboration can tackle societal and environmental sustainability issues in the city, and it was a pleasure sharing this moment with Torben Ohlander, Lotte Ohlander and Teres Arvidsson. We thank Fredrik Björk and Anders Edvik from Malmö Univerisity for facilitating the student visit. We can't wait to see what this new cohort will accomplish as they start their journeys toward creating a more sustainable future! 🌍✨

Cohabit is one of the companies that will be featured in the documentary "The Comeback of Youth Generation" by KBS Busan, the largest public broadcaster in South Korea. We had a fun day taking the KBS team with us in deliveries, which also included an unexpected elevator mishap that turned into a 45-minute BTS crash course for Max! The team also had the chance to interview one of our customers, Jana, who talked about her experience with Cohabit. Thank you to Jenny Levhag for making this introduction. We are always happy to represent Malmö University and Malmö stad and are excited to see the film!

We are happy to share our collaboration with brilliant students from Blekinge Institute of Technology, Malmö University and Aalborg University! Feedback and fresh perspectives are crucial for finding creative solutions and working with these student groups has highlighted the value of academic partnerships. Here's a glimpse into the work they've done! 📊 ABCD Analysis: Two student groups from Blekinge Institute of Technology conducted an ABCD analysis, which focused on critical factors and provided valuable recommendations for strategic improvements. ♻️ Life Cycle Assessment: Through NORION Consult, a student group from Aalborg University in Denmark delved into Life Cycle Assessment, exploring and proposing sustainable and eco-friendly solutions to improve our internal processes. 💻 Social Business Model Canvas & Media Campaign: Creativity and practicality merged as students from Malmö University developed Social Business Model Canvases and detailed Project Production Plans, paving the way for a media campaign created to expand our reach and brand visibility.
