The team which invented the OpporTunity idea are invited to present their proposal to the strategic cooperation group of the City of Tampere and Tampere Universities in December. One of its aims is to be a home for creative people and attract people to experiences around the year,” says Manager, PR and Marketing Iina Ojala from the City of Tampere. “The new event concept is nicely connected to the new city strategy. We also want local entrepreneurs to join the event implementation,” states TAMK’s Head of Communications and Marketing Services Piritta Palokangas. “The name of the idea, OpporTunity, already tells that this is a great chance to build a unique event concept which raises Tampere among internationally interesting student cities. The festival would be a great opportunity to welcome new students into the city and universities community in a highly visible manner,” justifies a member of the jury, Head of Student Services Kaisa Keskitalo from Tampere University. The OpporTunity festival was chosen as the winner due to its potential and viability. “All student teams’ ideas were of high quality and inspiring. All this is shared in social media channels widely and visibly. The core idea of the festival is to gather students, alumni and residents of the city to a joint event whose programme and setting honour Tampere as a communal, equal and sustainable model city. The OpporTunity idea includes elements which sit well with the strategies of the City of Tampere, Tampere University of Applied Sciences and Tampere University. Higher education students were hoped to approach the challenge in an open-minded manner. Six multidisciplinary student teams had the chance to present the jury their ideas on how to make Tampere the most attractive student city in Europe in 2030. The City of Tampere and Tampere Universities participated with a joint commission in the Sprint Innovation Festival for higher education students on 15-19 November.
