Tools for Organizational Development Available – Both Remotely and On-Site

• How to innovate remotely?
• What to consider in communication when working hybrid?
• How to offer remote services sustainably?
• What changes need to be made to the business strategy when operating remotely?

These are among the questions being considered both locally and internationally in the DistanceLAB project. The development of remote tools has progressed to the testing phase, and companies and public organizations are invited to try out these tools and provide feedback. The tools are continuously developed and their benefits and impacts are studied based on the received feedback. Participation is free.

Through the DistanceLAB project, organizations also have the opportunity to strengthen their networks in the Baltic Sea region. Project partners are located in Finland, Sweden, Norway, Latvia, Lithuania, and Poland, and include a variety of development companies, startup incubators, and R&D organizations with extensive networks.
