After the conversation I began to think how interesting combination of innovation is actually building in Tampere.

In the same premises is also located Demola, an open innovation environment for students and companies to get together and create something new and interesting.

Now there’s also a third environment building up to the same building, called the Hub. As it reads in Hub Tampere blog, The Hub is an initiative to build a network of places around the world where entrepreneurs, innovators and change makers can meet and work together to tackle the world’s most pressing social, cultural and environmental challenges.

This all seems very interesting and innovative for the future and Digital_Alpaca is also contemplating how to be a part in all of this. There are many things in the values and visions of these concepts that resonate very well with D_A’s own and it is going to be very interesting to see how these affect the entrepreneurial culture in Finland and are these ripples for some greater change.
