One such innovative approach is the Solution Lab (SolLab) format, which has been successfully implemented in Germany and then in Tunisia. A Solution Lab provides a plat-form where many participants such as students, young entrepreneurs, experts with specific knowledge in certain technical areas and eventually company employees come together to address real-world challenges proposed by businesses. Through a combination of collaborative problem-solving, mentorship, and direct engagement with companies from the manufacturing and service sectors. Solution Labs can be considered as a format that prepares participants for the professional world and enables industry to benefit from the skills and competencies residing in the University. This paper introduces briefly the various aspects of the Solution Lab format as it has been imple-mented in Tunisia, emphasizes its importance for education at master's level programs, stresses its role in fostering collaboration with industry and diverse institutions, and finally identifies the DICAMP master program on innovation management at the National Engineering School of Tunis (ENIT) as an ideal context to integrate the Solution Labs in higher education.enreport
