STACC aims to conduct applied research in software technology by working with suppliers and users of technology from among its owners and from outside. The mission of STACC is to enhance the skills and competitiveness of organisations that are closely involved in software technology in Estonia, while increasing their export potential and gains on software solutions.
STACC is one of eight competence centers financed by Enterprise Estonia. Centers aim to bridge the gap between scientific and economic innovation by providing a collective environment for academics, industry and other innovation actors and creating sufficient critical mass. Centers are involved in pooling of knowledge, creation of new knowledge by performing different types of research, training and dissemination of knowledge and networking.
