Description |
The Smart Service Innovation Projects (SSIPs) aim to give students a challenging opportunity to apply and extend the knowledge they acquire in the mandatory and elective courses of the BISS master program. Students will tackle a real business problem, in order to develop a smart service; that is, a service that exploits today’s data- and technology-rich environment to support managerial decision-making or facilitate end-consumers’ daily lives. There are two SSIPs each year, one in the first semester and one in the second semester. The goal is to develop implement implement the smart service.
