Green IT seminar

June 3rd, 9.00-13.00

Viktoria Centre, Keevise 6, Tallinn, Estonia

Never before has industry taken such large steps towards making production more green. Working on sustainable solutions has provided new opportunities for both the industrial and ICT sectors. Cooperation between these different sectors, as well as between countries, has been encouraged by the Green Industry Innovation programme of Norway Grants, which supports green business ideas and new environmental technologies.

Norway has proudly maintained a leading role in funding such sustainable solutions, and has successfully managed to spread this knowledge, and a green way of thinking, to countries all over Europe. The funded projects have been mostly within green product development: green IT, e-health, green transport and energy management systems.
This year’s Green IT seminar, on June 3rd, will relate stories of partnership and the realization of ideas in green industry innovation. But it will not stop there. Many more new ideas await discovery by today’s brightest minds and strongest performers!

Come, get inspired by the events of ICT Week Tallinn, meet potential partners, and become familiar with e-Estonia!

ICT Week is a week full of high-powered conferences and special events that will bring ICT experts, visionaries, entrepreneurs, venture capitalists, government leaders from all over the world to Estonia. Come, get inspired by the events of ICT Week Tallinn, meet potential partners, and become familiar with e-Estonia!
