ABOUT US

The data science company STACC knows how to benefit from the data. For more than 10 years, our data scientists, engineers and analysts have helped our customers identify dozens of data-driven ways to solve their business problems. We follow the principles of agile development and value close and direct cooperation with the customer. This results in tailor-made, state-of-the-art and functional solutions to specific problems.

STACC has also made a significant contribution to the development of the field of artificial intelligence in Estonia, engaging in research development in addition to business projects and being one of the most preferred internship bases for students of IT curricula.

STACC (Software Technology and Applications Competence Center) was established in 2009 with the mission to conduct high-level applied research in the field of data science and machine learning in cooperation with a consortium of scientific and industrial partners.

The founding members of STACC are University of Tartu and Tallinn University of Technology as the top centers of science in Estonia, and Cybernetica AS, Regio AS (now Reach-U AS), Webmedia AS (now Nortal AS), Logica Eesti AS (now CGI Eesti AS) and Quretec OÜ as the leading IT companies and users of Estonian software and knowledge-based technology.

STACC is one of the six currently operating technology competence centers financed by Enterprise Estonia. The centers aim to motivate companies to develop innovative products through cooperation with research institutions, thereby, bridging the gap between scientific and economic innovation.

OUR MISSION IS TO TURN DATA INTO VALUE.

The following values define the qualities we embody and the way we work together:

TRANSPARENCY

We communicate honestly and openly the work process, results, challenges and further plans both internally and externally.

RELIABILITY

We deliver what we promise, and we promise what we are able to carry out.

INGENUITY

We keep the balance between using existing knowledge and acquiring new one to achieve the best results and deliver value.

FLEXIBILITY

We focus rather on productivity and results than on working hours.

OPENNESS

We are open to change, cooperation and new ideas.

RESULT-ORIENTEDNESS

We create solutions that will work the best in client’s environment instead of choosing what is more innovative in theory.

EXPERTS IN THE FIELD

STACC’s team consists of experts in data science and machine learning with experience in both research and business projects. We discuss and educate about what is happening in our field – the latter by giving seminars at the unversity as well as making presentations at different conferences.
