An Accelerator of Global Growth
Business Finland is a Finnish governmental organization for innovation funding and trade,
travel and investment promotion. Business Finland‘s 600 experts work in roughly forty offices
globally and in sixteen regional offices around Finland. Business Finland is part of the Team
Finland network, collaborating closely with Finnish embassies, consulates and other public actors
supporting Finnish companies in building their global partnerships.
We create new growth by helping Finnish businesses
go global and by supporting and funding Finland-based
innovations. Our top experts and the latest research data
enable companies to seize market opportunities and turn
them into success stories. Our goal is for Finland to be the
most attractive and competitive innovation environment in
which companies are able to grow, change, and succeed.
Business Finland was created by a merger of two
organizations: Finpro, which offered services
for internationalization, investments and tourism
promotion, and Tekes, which offered funding for
innovation activities. Combining these four major
functions together into one organization is a unique
approach, making Business Finland a strategic partner
to Finnish and international companies.
Our activities in the Czech Republic focus on
attracting the attention of local companies and
stakeholders to Finnish solutions, technologies
and best collaboration practices. We are actively
networking with Czech partners to identify room
for Czech-Finnish cooperation. Our aim is always
to look for win-win opportunities, where Finnish
offerings could add a significant value in terms of
meeting local needs. Companies from the Czech
market that are interested in getting to know Finnish
competences and offerings are welcome to contact
us. With expertise in fields such as cleantech,
digitalization, smart industry and many others,
Finland can be a trusted partner to the Czech
Republic.
