This article presents a hybrid approach to modernising university knowledge transfer. Digitalisation, accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic, has significantly transformed higher education, requiring universities to integrate digital solutions while maintaining personal interactions. Based on a case study of BSP Business and Law School in Germany, the article analyses the steps in digitalisation that adapted digital tools without compromising their interactive, practice-oriented teaching philosophy. We present the three learning spaces model that expands traditional face-to-face and self-study approaches by adding a “digital space”, enabling guided self-learning and blended learning under the lecturer’s supervision. We highlight the important role of lecturers acting as transformative leaders, crucial in shaping a learning culture by focusing on skills like reflection, critical thinking, and self-organisation. This shift highlights the importance of a mindset change alongside technological advancements, emphasising flexibility and student engagement. Last but not least, we present concrete digital tools that were proven at BSP for redesigning knowledge transfer, such as Microsoft Teams features, serious games, hybrid events, and social media applications, to foster an adaptable and future-ready academic environment.
