Student company season is about to start. In this context, we will once again support student companies working with wood and wood-based materials in the product development and prototyping process. The support is aimed at helping student companies to prototype a wood product with sales potential. We are looking for student companies from all over Estonia to participate.
See here for more detailed conditions of participation.
We offer the following activities for student companies:
- Advice on product development processes: student companies will be offered expert advice on the different stages of product development, including conceptual design, modelling and prototyping.
- Collaboration and mentoring: student companies will have the opportunity to work together with professionals from the Competence Centre to put their ideas into practice.
- Prototyping: drawings, product development, models, etc. The prototype is tested and, if necessary, corrections are made before the final product.
- At the end of the service: the student company will receive product drawings and one prototype, and one prototype will remain at the Competence Centre.
Info day 25 September at 14
- On 25 September, we welcome all student companies to an information day on TSENTRIS or online. We will present the conditions and opportunities for participation.
Idea specifications by 6 October at the latest
- The student company should send a free-form description of the idea, possibly accompanied by pictures and/or drawings, to by 6 October at the latest.
The support is provided and implemented by the Timber Competence Centre of Võru County Education and Technology Centre TSENTER, co-funded by the European Union within the framework of the project “Developing the business ecosystem in South-East Estonia”. Read more about the project.
