Technology Academy Finland (TAF) is an independent foundation awarding the 1-million-euro Millennium Technology Prize that promotes sustainable technological innovation.
TAF’s agenda:
- Voicing public debate on the significance of technology and promoting innovations for a better life
- Providing a neutral collaboration forum for business, academia and governmental organizations
- Encouraging young people to study and choose a career in technology
One of TAF’s strengths is the tripartite cooperation between industry, governmental organizations and the scientific community and its extensive network in all these sectors. The three sectors are also represented in the TAF Board and the Executive Committee.
