Description | Comprehensive security has been raised by the state as a central new theme in the regional
development objectives. The aim of the project is to support the city's innovation-driven growth, competitiveness, vitality, employment, and internationalisation around comprehensive security. The project develops research, development and innovation business opportunities and business activities related to comprehensive security, considering the business models of green transition and smart solutions, innovation and export potential, and cooperation in value networks. Cities need new solutions to respond to global security challenges. There is a need to anticipate changes, strengthen the resilience of operations and support residents' crisis resilience. The project's measures will concretise the business opportunities opened by comprehensive security for innovation ecosystems both nationally and internationally and develop in anticipating security threats. The project aims to create an operating model to launch a national centre of excellence for comprehensive security in Kuopio. In the 2000s, broad competence, RDI and business foundations, as well as development platforms have been built in the Kuopio region to tackle the challenges of comprehensive security and security of supply and to strengthen the vitality of the area. |
