For students
Build real projects, learn digital skills, create work for your portfolio.
Metropolia's Tech Hub — Myllypuro Campus
Where ideas become real digital products
A place where students and teachers build apps, VR experiences, games, and AI tools. No experience needed. Just walk in with an idea.

What We Are
We're a tech hub, dedicated to accessibility and hands-on prototyping.
We're located in the hallway of the Myllypuro campus — right where students pass by every day on their way to classes, coffee, or conversations.
But we're more than a space. We make building things accessible to everyone — not just engineers or computer science students.
Whether you're studying healthcare, business, construction, or social services — if you have an idea, you should be able to bring it to life.
For teachers
Create new teaching tools, test ideas for research, collaborate on projects.
For teams
Work together across disciplines, turn ideas into prototypes fast.
2023
TITAN project starts with student-company-research collaboration.
2025
TITAN concludes with validated hands-on innovation outcomes.
Now
AivoLink expands the model beyond one field — same philosophy, wider access.
Where We Came From
Roots in the TITAN project
AivoLink was born from a simple observation: when students get access to tools, space, and support, they drive innovation forward — finding real hands-on applications for emerging technologies.
This became clear during the Future Construction Hub (TITAN) — a two-year innovation project at Metropolia (2023–2025) that brought together students, companies, and researchers to explore new technologies in the built environment.
Why should this energy be limited to one field? When TITAN ended, we developed it further — beyond just a showroom.
What We Do
We help you build digital products.
Apps and web tools, virtual and augmented reality, interactive experiences, and AI solutions.
Students work alongside our team to learn digital skills, prototype ideas, and create portfolio-ready work.
We also design gamified learning experiences because challenge, progression, and feedback make learning more engaging and memorable.
Apps
Web and mobile tools
XR
VR and AR experiences
Interactive
Simulation models
AI
Context-adaptable agents
Digital skills are essential
Yet many students graduate without hands-on practice in their own field.
Ideas stay on paper
We bridge the gap between planning and building.
Try, fail, learn
A place for safe experimentation and rapid iteration.
Why It Matters
The world is changing fast.
Digital skills aren't optional anymore. They're essential in almost every profession.
Metropolia helps students write business plans. But actually building the thing — that's hard to do alone. We fill that gap.
We give students a place to experiment, fail quick, learn, and try again. You don't need prior coding experience or advanced technical knowledge. You just need curiosity.
How It Works
No application process.
Just walk in with an idea. We'll help you figure out the rest.
No paperwork. No formal enrollment. The only requirement is that you're willing to try.

What Success Looks Like
Not just learning.
Real impact.
Success means innovation doesn't stay in one lane. It means ideas become real prototypes that people can use, test, and build upon.
