Each year, the Estonian Academy of Arts Research and Development Office, in conjunction with the Tallinn Strategic Management Office, holds an applied research and development projects competition to motivate the Academy’s members to apply to a greater extent the results of their academic and research work in the public, business and third sectors; to increase the quality and extent of knowledge services provided by the Academy to society and businesses and to raise public awareness of the application of the Academy’s know-how in the economy and society.
The main prize of the competition, provided by the City of Tallinn, is 1000€. The total prize fund is up to 3600€, and at least two prizes will be awarded. If numerous outstanding works are submitted for the competition, additional work(s) will be awarded.
The competition welcomes submissions from:
– Course or graduation projects by EKA students that have a practical application, for example if the results could potentially be used by a company or another organization.
– Research or project work by EKA staff and researchers that has practical applicability beyond the academic environment.
The works must be completed between 01.09.2024–31.08.2025.
To submit a project to the competition a completed form together with additional materials must be sent to koostoo@artun.ee no later than 15 September 2025. The e-mail addresses of all authors of the work must be included among the e-mail recipients.
The competition is co-funded by the City of Tallinn.
