Built environment

Construction is constantly changing.

Rapid advances in technology, new materials, the introduction of renewable energies and the drive towards sustainability and carbon neutrality are rapidly transforming construction.

In Vantaa, you can carry out experiments in the built environment.

Gain insights for developing products and services with experimenting 

Need more information on how your product or service performs in a real environment? Is one of your products or services suitable for testing in a built environment? 

We offer opportunities for companies and RDI actors to develop and test smart and sustainable solutions in the urban environment, together with the city, educational institutions, companies and citizens.   

Experiments can be related to open data and digitalisation, robotisation, digital twins, indoor climate solutions or the use of new materials in the built environment.    

Suggest an experiment. 

We'll contact you to arrange a meeting to discuss it in more detail.

Tikkurila Competence Campus as a development environment 

In the next few years, a vocational and continuous learning campus will be built in Tikkurila, Vantaa, which will include additional facilities for the Tikkurila Upper Secondary School and Varia Vocational College, the Vantaa Adult Education Centre and the Learning House. The campus will also bring together employment management, economic development services, integration and counselling services. 

The campus will serve as a centre for agile and needs-driven skills development, where a digital platform will be built in addition to the physical space.     

The Tikkurila Competence Campus will serve in particular students, job seekers, employers and businesses. The campus is expected to become operational during 2027.
