Such a connection with the business world is an extremely good lesson for all parties and brings more knowledge about the entrepreneurial scene. Apart from that, this cooperation with start-ups, entrepreneurs and the business world returns many times over with experience and knowledge in the world of innovation. <br><br>All of Hringi\u00f0a&#039;s mentors have experience and knowledge of innovation, entrepreneurship and\/or the establishment of a company, and they all wanted advice on funding and grants in Europe in those years before, when it was difficult to seek guidance. Mentors are coordinated in Hringi\u00f0a, and in doing so, students receive the best possible advice and knowledge. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-full is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"845\" height=\"492\" data-src=\"https:\/\/klak.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/278578439_1178492059558285_1876341874531042901_n.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2461 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/klak.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/278578439_1178492059558285_1876341874531042901_n.jpg 845w, https:\/\/klak.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/278578439_1178492059558285_1876341874531042901_n-300x175.jpg 300w, https:\/\/klak.is\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/278578439_1178492059558285_1876341874531042901_n-768x447.jpg 768w\" data-sizes=\"auto\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 845px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 845\/492;\" data-original-sizes=\"(max-width: 845px) 100vw, 845px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Hra\u00f0allinn is a collaboration platform for circular companies in Iceland, where individuals from companies and organizations can meet other people who are passionate about and work within the circular economy.
