Smart Otaniemi is an
innovation ecosystem that connects experts, organisations, technologies and
pilot projects. It brings the building blocks of a smart future together. Here,
we’re working on world changing ideas for smart energy that will be both
sustainable and commercially successful.
The webinar is hosted by Dr. Antti Ruuska. It consists
of four parts. It starts with an expert introduction to the future of energy.
After that, the model of Smart Otaniemi innovation ecosystem is presented. We
then take a deep dive into selected Smart Otaniemi pilot projects. The last
part goes through the co-operation models in Smart Otaniemi and gives
practical instructions on how to attend the innovation ecosystem.
