finland – Forerunner in digital resilience and connectivity
To be resilient means to be prepared for the challenges the world brings. Finland has long embraced a mindset of preparedness, shaping its society to protect critical infrastructure and maintain the Finnish way of life.
With the ongoing transformation of the world’s security landscape, Finland has turned its mindset to developing digital technologies and solutions that strengthen resilience in the society. Much of the work builds on longstanding Finnish strengths in cybersecurity, telecommunications, automation and public-private sector cooperation. For example, Finland is already laying the groundwork for the forthcoming 6G era of wireless communications.
Why Finland?
For some it may seem far-fetched, but happiness is one of the factors that make Finland a prime location for doing business. Finland's consistent ranking as the happiest country in the world is attributed to the high levels of trust and freedom in the Finnish society which, according to research, contribute to well-being, productivity – and innovation. Finland also excels in digitalization, consistently ranking high internationally due to its strong tech expertise, high level of education, and skilled workforce.
