May 25: Tampere Innovation Experience @ Demola
Organized for the first time, Tampere Innovation Experience @ Demola is a meeting of minds on 25th of May. The event will bring together the Tampere research community to unleash resources and accelerate idea sharing in the spirit of open innovation. Tampere-based researchers, professors and students will have a chance to make new connections, leverage ideas and tap each other’s expertise in an inspiring and relaxed atmosphere of Demola. The one-day program will feature short technology presentations by experts during which researchers, students and professors can engage old and new colleagues in conversation, challenge each other with ideas and come up with new ways to combine technologies. What’s more, we will have over 40 (TBD) demos on display representing cutting-edge technology in the ubiquitous digital society.
NRC Tampere has pioneered an open innovation model where information flows freely between all research collaborators. Officially opened in September 2007, the Innovation Center includes over 60 researchers in joint teams from Tampere University of Technology, University of Tampere and Nokia Research Center who work in collaboration to achieve world-class scientific results. The current partnerships aim to explore technology frontiers, solving scientific challenges in a variety of areas including Human-technology interaction, Context-aware media and signal processing, and High performance mobile platforms.
Collaboration work has also been carried out in the Demola facility in Tampere, an award-winning multidisciplinary innovation environment for companies and students to work together on next generation digital products and services. Demola has been an efficient communication channel between both Universities, TAMK, Hermia Ltd, City of Tampere, VTT and NRC in Tampere region.
