How do we operate? Mediapolis is an international media campus concentrating on content production and audio-visual information and communications technology. Production companies and students work side-by-side in an energetic atmosphere creating their own stories while utilising different media. The DemolaandProtomo innovation concepts are also a part of Mediapolis. Demola offers university students a great opportunity to add some real-life twist to the conventional path towards a career. The New Factory is an environment for open innovation where ideas can be processed into prototypes, pilot projects, products and services, new business and new jobs. Campus Arena will be a hub of science, research and technology. This extreme concentration of knowhow is being developed in the heart of the Tampere University of Technology campus in Hervanta.
