Unlocking industrial 5G

Drives digital transformation across selected industries by combining radio technology, advanced algorithms and industry applications.

What is Business Finland’s Veturi initiative?

The Business Finland Veturi initiative challenges global companies to lead ecosystems that brings together companies of all sizes and other key players.

Since 2020, Business Finland Veturi challenge competitions have invited internationally active companies to tackle major future challenges and increase their research, development and innovation (RDI) investments in Finland. Successful projects are expected to generate several billion euros in additional investment.

Selected companies, including Nokia, commit to boosting RDI spending in Finland and fostering collaboration with research organizations and enterprises, supporting Finland’s RDI target of 4% and the employment target of 75% outlined in the Government program.
