The focus in this program is on building robust cross-border value chains, fostering deeptech business ventures and enabling data-driven ecosystems. The aim is to strengthen the Nordic region’s long-term competitiveness and resilience through the application of new technologies, deep-tech and new collaboration structures. The program will support ecosystems and value chain collaboration to solve global and Nordic societal challenges and achieve impact at a systemic level.
We are working towards this program mission through three innovation areas:

- Use of critical technologies to increase innovation capacity for sustainable transition and uncovering the business opportunities, scaling the innovative and digital service sector.
- Contribute to strategic innovation projects where resilience against external threats like for instance the climate and environment, health and demography, democracy are addressed.
