Tallinn Tech and Silicon Valley
Tallinn University of Technology is expanding its presence and partnerships in Silicon Valley through student internships, training programs, and joint operations with Stanford and Berkeley. The university has opened an office in Silicon Valley's Plug and Play TechCenter to facilitate these collaborations. TUT aims to commercialize its technologies and benefit from Silicon Valley investments by installing its science and innovations in Valley companies. Topics of focus include recruiting talented professors and students, making money from innovation, and shifting to 21st century learning models that integrate science, teaching, and innovation.
