The City of Tampere and the Tampere University Community (Tampere University of Applied Sciences and the University of Tampere) combine forces in the International Tampere Hub joint project to create a coordinated Tampere region service model, which brings companies and international experts together more efficiently. The project brings together services aimed at companies and international experts on a one-stop-shop basis. The project develops international partnership networks and cooperation between the higher education institutes and the business networks.
