Inside the project
Focus
How can a technology transfer ecosystem turn ideas into economic value?
The Kavram Meslek Yüksekokulu project focused on addressing the organization's consulting needs within a university and ecosystem framework.
The account of this project was structured around the organization's own definition of its needs.
With Ruhi Kaykayoğlu as founding consultant, “University Setup Consulting” facilitation services were provided for the restructuring of Kavram Meslek Yüksekokulu between 2007-2009.
Ecosystem design requires establishing a shared flow of value, not just the efforts of individual actors.
Scope
We worked on restructuring the vocational college as part of a university establishment consultancy. Within the founding consultancy, we provided facilitation support for the restructuring work.
Implementation
HOW WAS ECOSYSTEM DESIGN USED IN THIS PROJECT?
We treated ecosystem design not as an organizational chart but as a system in which universities, businesses and entrepreneurs participate in a shared flow of value. TTO and technopark structures are nodes in this system.
Ecosystems are built not through plans but through trust and a shared agenda.
The journey we designed
- 01EXPLOREA situation map was developed by considering the organization's real needs, current ways of working and external signals together.
- 02REFRAMEThe real need behind the stated request was reframed in the context of the organization's strategy and ways of working.
- 03BRING IT INTO THE ORGANIZATIONThe framework was turned into a structure connected to the organization's decision-making and working rhythm.
Kaykayoğlu project insight
An ecosystem is not the sum of its institutions but the design of the value flows between them.
