About the project
The goal of this project is to capture the creativity, knowledge and innovative thinking in the Ostrobothnian countryside and further develop it into new products, services, business models and dynamic innovative networks between and within sectors.The goal is also to increase the value of the countryside as an innovation environment. This will be achieved by creating active networks between "grassroots", research, development, education, business and financiers. Meetings will be created between villagers, entrepreneurs, young and old, and between different sectors. The aim is to allow participants to test the possibilities of developing ideas that they have not previously dared, to experiment, and to refine them with experts in different fields. The aim is to identify latent themes and connect the factors that enable a new product, service, activity or societal process to develop and optimise.
