A facilitator of new business, services, innovativiness and creativity

Creative Tampere is the City of Tampere's business development policy programme that creates profitable business and jobs from the know-how present in Tampere, alongside the experts, companies, and organisations active in the city.

The programme offers a framework and funding for kicking off projects that create new business. The programme acts as an accelerator and as a creator of networks. Companies and organisations plan and implement the projects selected in the programme.

Three theme areas

The programme is divided into three theme areas. Each theme has its own individual goals that guide the selection of projects to be implemented.
  1. Creative industries
  2. Innovations and entrepreneurship
  3. Attractive city
The Creative Tampere programme was started by the City of Tampere, and the programme is being implemented in 2006–2011.
