Regional Statistics on Entrepreneurial Activity 2016 Enterprises 2017 Regional statistics on entrepreneurial activity 2016 Establishments’ gross value of output grew in 2016 – Half of the growth was generated in SMEs Corrected on 9 February 2018. The corrected number is indicated in red. In 2016, there were 357,000 enterprises operating in Finland. There were 350,000 small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) representing 98 per cent of the enterprise stock. The enterprises had a total of 388,000 establishments of which 93 per cent were SMEs’ establishments. The combined gross value of output of establishments was EUR 285 billion. The value of output was EUR nine billion higher than in 2015. SMEs’ establishments produced 51 per cent, or EUR 4.7 billion of the total increase in gross value in the whole country. The engines for growth were SME’s establishments in construction and service industries. Distribution of SMEs’ establishments’ production growth (%) in 2016 Helsinki 21.12.2017 Quoting is encouraged provided Statistics Finland is acknowledged as the source. After deducting production costs (excl. personnel costs) from the gross value of output, the value added of establishments totalled EUR 103 billion. Value added grew by EUR five billion from 2015. Value added grew in all main industries. Most growth was generated in manufacturing and construction, nearly EUR one billion in both industries. Growth was recorded in almost every region. In Uusimaa, value added increased from EUR 41 billion to close on EUR 44 billion. Uusimaa produced one-half of the whole country's growth. The share of SMEs in the region’s value added varied between 37 and 70 per cent. More than one-half of the region’s value added was generated by SMEs in North Karelia, Pohjois-Savo, North Ostrobothnia, Etelä-Savo, Varsinais-Suomi, Kainuu, Åland and South Ostrobothnia. The share of SMEs’ establishments (%) of the region’s value added in 2016 (Corrected on 9 February 2018) Measured with the concept full-year employment, the establishments employed 1.4 million persons. The share of total manufacturing of employed persons was 22 per cent, that of construction 11 per cent, trade 16 per cent and services 47 per cent. The share of primary production was four per cent. The establishments of SMEs employed 800,000 persons or 57 per cent of the total personnel of establishments. SMEs are important employers in several regions. 2 Share of SMEs’ establishments (%) among employed persons in the region in 2016 (Corrected on 9 February 2018) 3 Contents Tables Appendix table Appendix table 1.

The Finnish Multi-Level Policy-Making and the Quality of Local Development Policy Process: The Cases of Oulu and Seinänaapurit Sub-regions. European Planning Studies. 6(5) 505-524. Markku Sotarauta & Reija Linnamaa The Finnish Multi-Level Policy-Making and the Quality of Local Development Policy Process: The Cases of Oulu and Seinänaapurit Sub-regions ABSTRACT Theoretically this paper is based on soft strategy (communicative strategic planning) that balances different sides of policy-making, i.e. its instrumental, social, communicative and processual aspects. The main starting point in this article is that the solutions to many of the contemporary social and environmental problems on the one hand and success in economic competition on the other hand may not be found as directly as earlier believed in a search for correct answers, design of creative intended strategies or appealing visions. Instead of these means the solutions may be found in the quality of the communicative processes of decision- making, policy-making, co-operation, knowledge creation etc. Empirically this paper focuses on the analyses of the quality of policy processes in two Finnish sub-regions outside the capital region, i.e. the sub-regions of Oulu and Seinänaapurit. First, the Finnish multi-level regional policy-making is described by programming procedures, second, the communicative strategic planning based theoretical framework is set, third, criteria for the analysis of the quality of policy process are created, fourth, such important analytical dimensions as information flow between key-actors, surplus value brought by each actor, commitment, touching-points between strategies, learning, forums, trust and responsibility are briefly analysed in the context of case sub-regions.

Introduction In the era of knowledge-based economy the regional or local knowledge environment and innovation environments for specific business areas have become more important. In the knowledge-based economy the base of knowledge constantly evolves institutionally. The institutional evolvement actualizes itself by linking different kinds of knowledge-creation institutions to the knowledge-exploitation organizations and sub-systems through new kinds of knowledge-enhancing mechanisms, and mainly from R&D conducted in relation to regional capabilities (Cooke and Leydesdorff, 2004). Furthermore, new institutions are taking part in the local innovation networks, shaping the technological change and transformation in the region for the benefits of all parties, local businesses, universities or other higher education institutions and local/ national development authorities. If a region has only little formal and informal research and a few development institutions and particularly little interaction between them, actors find it more difficult to transform information (resources) into new knowledge and innovations.

  • Finngen Study Taps Into a Unique Gene Pool in Search of the Next Breakthroughs in Disease Prevention, Diagnosis and Treatment
    International Press Release Free for publication 12/19/2017 at 9:00 am ETC/ 7:00 UTC FinnGen study taps into a unique gene pool in search of the next breakthroughs in disease prevention, diagnosis and treatment A unique study that combines genome information with digital health care data has been launched in Finland. The FinnGen study plans to analyse up to 500 000 unique blood samples collected by a nation-wide network of Finnish biobanks. The goal is to deepen our understanding about the origins of diseases and their treatment. The project is expected to continue for six years, with a current budget of €59M. Located at the outskirts of Northern Europe, Finland is one of today’s global hotspots for medical research. Finland tops global listings in healthcare, education, innovation, digitalization and good governance. In addition, country’s 5,5 million population share a unique genetic heritage, which provides researchers with enormous opportunities to innovate. Due to the unique heritage of the Finnish population, genomic data can be analysed faster and more effectively than in populations of more heterogenous origins – significantly improving the chances of breakthrough findings. ”This makes Finland a great testbed for genomic research”, says Kimmo Pitkänen, Director of Helsinki Biobank. The FinnGen study is an unprecedented global research project representing one of the largest studies of this type. Project aims to improve human health through genetic research, and ultimately identify new therapeutic targets and diagnostics for treating numerous diseases. The collaborative nature of the project is exceptional compared to many ongoing studies, and all the partners are working closely together to ensure appropriate transparency, data security and ownership.

  • The (Wicked) Problem of SME Internationalisation in South Ostrobothnia
    Eevastiina Hyvönen The (wicked) problem of SME internationalisation in South Ostrobothnia A qualitative investigation of entrepreneurs’ and regional stakeholders’ self- reported perceptions using a Complex Adaptive Systems framework Thesis Spring 2021 School of Business and Culture Master of Business Administration 2 SEINÄJOKI UNIVERSITY OF APPLIED SCIENCES Thesis abstract 1 Faculty: School of Business and Culture Degree Programme: Master of Business Administration Specialisation: International Business Author: Eevastiina Hyvönen Title of thesis: The (wicked) problem of SME internationalisation in South Ostrobothnia: A qualitative investigation of entrepreneurs’ and regional stakeholders’ self-reported perceptions using a Complex Adaptive Systems framework Supervisor: Sanna Joensuu-Salo Year: 2021 Number of pages: 152+48 Number of appendices: 6 This thesis explores how South Ostrobothnian entrepreneurs and the regional stakeholders assisting them view SME internationalisation. The study argues that the low level of internationalisation can be understood as a wicked problem in the complex systems framework, and that a deeper understanding of the phenomenon in its context is required. A qualitative mixed-methods design was selected, where Fuzzy Cognitive Mapping, Empathy Mapping, open-ended questions, and an export barriers survey were utilised. The South Ostrobothnian participants included 5 SME entrepreneurs and 12 employees of different business development and internationalisation support organisations. Both groups recognised the impact of small business size on resource availability (time, financial, intellectual capital). The entrepreneurs seemed more focused on the operational side of internationalisation in their descriptions. Due to an already high workload they wanted correct answers to their questions quickly as well as practical help with the process so they could focus on deal-making.

  • Finnish Native Grey Partridge (Perdix Perdix) Population Differs Clearly in Mitochondrial DNA from the Farm Stock Used for Releases

Box 3000, FI-90014 University of Oulu, Finland (e-mail: tuija. liukkonen@oulu.fi) Received 12 May 2005, revised version received 30 Dec. 2005, accepted 28 June 2005 Liukkonen, T. 2006: Finnish native grey partridge (Perdix perdix) population differs clearly in mito- chondrial DNA from the farm stock used for releases. — Ann. Zool. Fennici 43: 271–279. The mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) control region I (CR1) of 138 wild and 36 captive grey partridges (Perdix perdix) was sequenced. Representing two major mitochondrial DNA lineages that differed by 15 nucleotide substitutions (3.7%), the Finnish lineage dominated in the wild, whereas the European lineage dominated in the captive stock. Most individuals represented a single haplotype in each lineage. Nucleotide and haplo- type diversities were high in mixed subpopulations with individuals of both lineages. Analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA) showed that when the captive stock was excluded, about 80% of the total variation could be explained by the variation within subpopulations. When captive stock was included, 67% of the variation was explained by the variation between subpopulations. According to ΦST values, captive stock dif- fered from the wild subpopulations. These results clearly show that the native stock in Finland differs in mtDNA CR1 from the farm stock. In the area of large-scale captive rearing and releasing, only one bird represented the same mitochondrial lineage as the farm stock.
