Strategic partnerships Malmö University is actively expanding collaboration through new research centers and cross-institution projects, such as the Game Development Research Centre (GDRC) with multiple Swedish universities, presenting an opportunity to offer joint programs, research services, and sponsored initiatives.

Research funding Recent grant support and investments, including a Crafoord Foundation grant for advanced scanning electron microscopy, indicate appetite for high-end research infrastructure and services that vendors can align with through equipment, software, or maintenance partnerships.

International growth The university emphasizes an international orientation and is recruiting internationally, suggesting opportunities for global education platforms, international student recruitment tech, collaboration tools, and offshore program enablement.

Digital & collaboration tools With a tech stack featuring Google Ads, Google Tag Manager, Microsoft 365, and cloud mail, there is potential for expanding cloud-based collaboration, analytics, marketing automation, and security solutions tailored to higher education workflows.

Research talent expansion Recent headcount growth and investment in early-career faculty indicate a favorable window for offering research support services, grant writing assistance, enterprise software licenses, and professional development programs to attract and retain researchers.
