Expertise

Since February 2017 Tina Haisch has been working with the School of Business, University of Applied Sciences and Arts Northwestern Switzerland. At the same time, she has her own business companies (“Raumwirtschaft”, “Creafutura”). Since 2008 she has been consultant as an independent expert to organisations and regions in the fields of promoting innovation and the economic development of regions. Also, she is expert to answer all questions about NRP and cooperative projects in different political levels, such as communities, cantons, regions, federal government. Now she is leading several different projects with the topics “innovative development of areas” and real-world laboratories. These are e.g. Areal RTunlimited in Reutlingen/Germany, Smart City Areal Wolf, Basel, Co-Next in Muttenz, Klybeck-Quartier Basel, Innovationszentrum Olten. In her understanding, the dialogue between science and practical work and the integration of different interdisciplinary actors are the hub of her work.
