The City of Tallinn and Tehnopol have awarded a total of €145,000 to six Estonian companies through the Tallinnovation competition to develop and test innovative smart city solutions in Tallinn’s urban space. Tallinnovation is more than just a testing ground – it is a growth platform where technologies that create new quality in the urban environment and aim for the global market are born.

The Estonian Business Incubator of the European Space Agency (ESA BIC Estonia) has selected four new space-tech startups in its latest call: Babayte, Spiral Hydrogen, MS Forest, and Energy Risk Service. Each company will receive a development grant of €60,000 — half of the funding comes from the European Space Agency and the other half from the cities of Tartu and Tallinn, depending on the startup’s location.

Four innovative solutions were selected from this year’s application round of the Tallinnovation smart city competition, organized in cooperation of the Science Park Tehnopol and the City of Tallinn. The winners were road safety sensors, solar-powered luminaries, drones for rescue operations and an innovative package recycling solution.
