Finland is the world’s most competitive business environment, according to the latest World Economic Forum Report 2003-04. While excelling in a wide range of business categories, it is particularly recognised for its advances in technology and education.

In addition to its highly skilled workforce, advanced infrastructure and strategic positioning in northern Europe – with access to 80 million consumers in the Nordic region, the Baltic countries and Russia – Finland offers an innovative test bed for cutting-edge ideas and technologies. Its business environment enables companies to operate in a modern, efficient way.

Finland’s excellent opportunities are especially applicable to companies in high technology areas, such as information and communications technology. Foreign-owned companies are eligible for the same support as Finnish companies, including investment incentives such as grants and loans for R&D.

Invest in Finland is a national organisation based in Helsinki, promoting FDI in Finland. It helps foreign companies to locate in Finland and take advantage of the country’s unique business environment.

The organisation offers an effective link between foreign and domestic companies. In addition to offering practical assistance in contacting Finnish companies and organisations, it provides all the information required to establish a business in the region.
