    ONE YEAR OF IMPACTWHEEL Across 7 European Countries 🇪🇺 In the AI era, ideas are becoming increasingly abundant. The real challenge is no longer generating ideas, but deciding which ones truly deserve alignment, commitment, and resources. This is precisely where the VCW - Value Creation Wheel becomes increasingly relevant: helping organisations and stakeholders transform idea abundance into higher-quality, aligned, and actionable decisions. One example is the IMPACTWHEEL EU Project, which places the VCW methodology at the heart of its approach to innovation, collaboration, and impact creation across Europe. During the first year of the IMPACTWHEEL project: - more than 500 students participated in activities; - over 80 teaching staff were involved; - more than 80 non-teaching staff contributed; - and over 100 participants received mentoring support. All of this took place across 7 European countries, reinforcing the growing importance of structured decision-making, stakeholder alignment, and collective intelligence in complex environments. Excited to see the impact that the next phases of IMPACTWHEEL will generate across Europe.
