- We accept both general and targeted donations.
- Tampere University and Tampere University of Applied Sciences undertake fund-raising and use donated funds in accordance with their strategy and policies aligned by their President and Board.
- We are building significant research and development co-operation with businesses and draw a clear line between gratuitous donations and other types of co-operation.
