Description of measure

The City of Helsinki has invested EUR 9.7 millions for enterprises to recover from the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, and boost entrepreneurial activities for the years 2021-2024. The NewCo Helsinki service aims to improve people’s general understanding of the coronavirus situation's effect on commerce as well as come up with concrete actions to provide immediate assistance to business owners in distress. Although this policy is not directly targeted at clusters, it constitutes a support to cluster beneficiaries (SMEs) and can open doors for collaboration with clusters on business supprort services.
