Mika is responsible for the implementation of the data economy growth program, which is, in accordance with the Program of Prime Minister Orpo’s Government, an initiative that implements concrete and participatory measures. Its goal is to help Finnish companies and business networks utilize data in their own operations, products, and services.
“AI Champion is the the growth program’s pilot in which data is utilized. That is to say, data‑driven value is created in the construction industry, whilst aiming for not only improved efficiency and productivity but also for new business innovations and growth.”
We’re thrilled to have Mika’s more than 30 years of expertise in ICT-sector digitalization and data- and service business in the project. During his career, he has worked in both the private and public sectors, in expert and leadership roles, in small start-ups as well as in large international corporations.
“The data economy growth program expects the AI Champion project to deliver new business innovations that create intangible value and, as the name suggests, growth.”
In the Business Finland funded AI Champion Co-Innovation project, we aim to find out the design and construction challenges in Building Services and create a 100 AI Agents to solve these challenges and enhance the supply chains. Co-operators and funders in AI Champion are Tampere University, University of Oulu, Granlund, Fira, Koja Chiller, ETS NORD, Kiilto, GF BFS, Nimlas, LVI-INFO, Sähköteknisen Kaupan Liitto ry and Airlyse.
