According to the opinion of Prof. Habil.

Timo Tuukkanen, the Director of "Bentley System Solutions", presented good examples of cooperation between international business and science, one of which is the cooperation of VGTU and "Bentley Systems" concerning the founding of the BIM (Building Information Modelling) Academy at the university.
