Prices

At Aalto Talent Expo, exhibitors are able to form a stand that is suitable for their needs and activities. When deciding the size and form of the stand, it is useful to begin by visualizing what is going to happen at the stand. Pick the number of units (4 m2/unit) and combine units to form a stand that meets your needs!

Choosing one basic stand is great for a traditional fair presence. If you are looking for a more dashing and active fair stand, we recommend choosing multiple adjacent stands. For example, with a combination of 3 stands you'll be able to have small presentations and activities at your stand and can even interview students or have performances within your space.

VAT will be added to all prices.

Entities within Aalto University have the possibility to join Aalto Talent Expo free. If you are interested in an Aalto stand, please contact us: [email protected]. Please note that Aalto stand is the same size as a mini stand, but does not include branding or food vouchers.

Student marketing and JobTeaser

At the expo, the main communication channel to students is the tried and true JobTeaser. Every participating exhibitor will have a Company Profile -page on JobTeaser, and virtual fair activities are organized via JobTeaser. 

JobTeaser is a job portal used by Aalto University Career Services. Students can find the jobs targeted to Aalto University students, all career services events and information + appointments for updating their job hunting skills in JobTeaser. 

The Expo's student marketing is built utilizing many digital and traditional marketing channels. For social media marketing we use (among other Aalto University accounts) the Aalto Talent Expo instagram account: https://www.instagram.com/aaltotalentexpo/. Natually, the event is also very visible on campus in the fall and our team even sends a post card invitation to all Aalto University students!
