A portal is a customized and branded area on Riipen that represents an institution, or school and is where members of the institution can create and manage experiences, manage their network of companies, customize workflows and view outcomes such as reports.
Portals can also be linked to other portals that house specific segments of the institution; e.g. faculties, colleges within universities, student clubs, etc. These are referred to as "sub portals."
