Strategic Partnerships The University of Winnipeg engages in cross-institution collaborations (e.g., AI tool development with Manitoba partners and joint certificates across departments). Pitch opportunities with research collaboration platforms, grant-funded innovation projects, and industry-aligned programs to attract partners for funded initiatives.

Expansion Initiatives New programs and certificates launching for 2026-27, such as the joint certificate between Criminal Justice and Human Rights, indicate a willingness to expand offerings. Target edtech, assessment tool providers, and credentialing platforms to support program development and student recruitment.

Technology Adoption Active tech stack including Adobe Experience Cloud, WordPress, iCIMS, and analytics tools suggests readiness for digital marketing, CRM optimization, student enrollment automation, and data-driven personalization offerings.

Research & AI Focus Significant engagement in AI tool development with provincial funding and partnerships signals opportunities for AI research platforms, data services, ethics and compliance tooling, and enterprise collaborations with health and community organizations.

Community & Access Active community partnerships (Portage Revitalization, WestCAST participation, EDI exhibitions) reflect a focus on inclusive education and outreach. Propose student learning platforms, accessibility tools, and community-engaged learning solutions to support engagement goals and fundraising.
