seeproject 

  


On 6 and 7 December 2010, the SEE project partners from Estonia and Ireland organised the fifth project workshop as an extra activity on the theme ‘Meeting of Minds: Next Generation Design Support Programmes’ in Tallinn, Estonia. The purpose of the two days was to distil best practice and outline an approach for creating ‘next practice’ for programmes. The event was opened by the Deputy Secretary General for Economic Affairs and Communication, Ahti Kuningas, who mentioned that as a result of the spotlight on design, partly as a result of SEE project activities, he now understood design as a much broader topic and look forward to learning from the best ranking design countries across the world. The workshop brought together delegates from Enterprise Estonia (the primary provider of support to Estonia’s entrepreneurs) and the Ministry for Economic Affairs and Communications as well as coordinators of design support programmes in Brazil, Denmark, Ireland, New Zealand, UK and Wales.
