Art, Life and Entrepreneurship is a holistic, non-linear course by Aalto Ventures Program for students of Aalto ARTS to create a job out of what they love. In this exhibition, the students of the Fall 2022 iteration of the course present their final submissions, having explored how art and entrepreneurship could meet in a beneficial way. 

The exhibition will be displayed in the Väre lobby from 29 November to 13 December.

The task of the students was to imagine what they'd like to tell a fellow art student who'd like to be an entrepreneur. They have also framed entrepreneurial opportunities in their own field.

As a visitor, you get to experience what an entrepreneurial arts course at Aalto University is like, what students have worked on, and how entrepreneurship can support artists to lead a better life.

A Flexible Biorefinery using Machine Learning

Biorefineries convert biomass, such as wood, annual plants or agricultural into products and energy. Research teams in Finland and Germany aim to maximize such product output for a more holistic valorization of our natural resources. The development of these new processes is often slow because they require optimization of many factors. The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) can help us accelerate such a development drastically.
