“This activity brought together 68 companies and 38 Doctoral students through intensive joint development work resulting not only as theses and technical solutions for the industry, but also as positive flow of ideas and people between academia and industry. Our experience has shown the importance of bringing renewal to companies through joint work and new “industry-ready” talented people”, Heino continues.
