“It’s easy to have a vision – yet it’s the way that they are brought into being that determines how they fare. To ensure success, one must also be focussed on what the future has in store.”
Tivit is committed to ensuring even more rapid development of Finnish ICT know-how. As with other Finnish Strategic Centres for Science, Technology and Innovation (SHOKs), Tivit seeks to implement innovation policy, combine and systematise research and at the same time ensure that the results flow on to be used in the business world more rapidly than has previously been possible.
Since being founded in February 2008, Tivit has sought to smooth the path from the research sector to the business world by both predicting the products and services of the future and also by helping new trends, technologies and ideas gain momentum. The range and nature of Tivit’s work is determined by the strategic research areas as outlined by the 46 companies, universities and public organisations – of various sizes - which own Tivit. Tivit uses information and communication know-how and technologies to build a real-time society to both increase productivity and protect the environment.
Tivit gathers the various projects and plans from these spheres into wider research programmes, raises the bar and level of expectations of innovation, gives rise to new study in the least-researched areas and then obtains additional funding from private and public donors in order to still further enhance the quality and success of each and every project.
At the present moment Finland is the second “hottest” hotbed of innovation (Harvard Business Review, March 2009). The aim of Tivit’s activity is to ensure that it stays this way. It is only natural to want innovations to ensure success on markets. Tivit makes this possible as the focus is on application in the business world – a world fed by the opportunities that new technologies provide.
