University tours

Opera believes the Web is a force for good. As an industry leader in providing innovative and standards-compliant Web browsing, Opera Software seeks to work with the next generation of leaders and thinkers whose ideas will decide the future of the Web.

For more than two years, we traveled the globe delivering seminars and talks about the Web in our university tours program, exploring topics such as the history and future of the Web, the browser industry, open web standards, web applications, and the role of the web and mobile browsing, particularly in developing countries.

Our university tours have given students an opportunity to gain new perspectives on technology trends, direct questions to Opera Software web evangelists, developers and product managers, and network with people leading the IT industry.

Past university tours have been held in countries including South Africa, France, Ukraine, Spain, Japan, China, the United Kingdom, Indonesia, the United States, Russia, India, Germany, Poland, Mexico, Taiwan, Nigeria, and Brazil. You can read all about them on the university tours blog.

We are currently taking a break from touring, but we are continuing our commitment to improving web education and making the Web a better, more open place!

"Our university trains vocational instructors who will lead fields such as mechanics, electronics and telecommunications. The students eagerly paid attention to the seminar from Opera Software, as the company possesses top-level techniques for Web technologies such as CSS and bringing Web browsers to new devices on multiple platforms. It was a great opportunity for the students to listen directly to those people who are at the forefront of technology today."
