Laboratoriosta pörssiin! 🔬📈 Suomalaisesta tutkimuksesta kasvaa nyt yrityksiä, jotka vievät kvanttitietokoneita maailmalle, rakentavat pienydinreaktoreita ja skaalaavat uusia ruokateknologioita teolliseen tuotantoon. “Tutkimuslähtöiset ideat ovat sysäämässä Suomen kasvua liikkeelle”, sanoo VTT:n toimitusjohtaja Kalle Härkki. 💪 VTT-lähtöiset IQM Quantum Computers ja Steady Energy ovat edenneet pörssiin. Onego Bio rakentaa ensimmäistä täyden mittakaavan tehdastaan Yhdysvaltain Wisconsiniin, ja Volare Solutions on avannut teollisen mittakaavan tehtaan Poriin. 👩🔬 Näiden tarinoiden yhteisiä nimittäjiä ovat vuosikymmenten syväosaaminen ja VTT:n tutkimusinfra, jossa uusia ratkaisuja on voitu testata, kehittää ja pilotoida ennen suuria investointeja. “Sama VTT:n osaaminen ja infra on muiden kasvuyhtiöiden ja teollisuuden käytettävissä”, Kalle kertoo. “Voimme tarjota rautaisannoksen tutkimusosaamista aika lailla kaikille teollisuudenaloille.” Näin suomalainen tutkimus luo kasvua ➡️ https://hubs.ly/Q04C67n30 #VTTBeyondTheObvious

Finland is testing how electricity and hydrogen can power emission-free heavy-duty transport ❄️🛣️ 🚛 A VTT-led project has built a high-tech hybrid truck combining electric mobility and hydrogen fuel cells in a unique way. 🚛 The SISU truck will begin transport operations between Vuosaari harbour and Jyväskylä in late 2026. 🚛 The pilot supports the EU’s objective of emission-free heavy road freight transport. “SISU is the heaviest and longest of a total of four trucks piloted across Europe. With its size and the difficult winter conditions in Finland, the operating environment of this truck is the most demanding,” says VTT's Mikko Pihlatie.

“The next decade will belong to the countries and ecosystems that can turn research into industrial outcomes faster.” 🏭 ⚡ In semiconductors, and deep tech more broadly, great research is only the spark, says Jussi. Rautee from Applied Materials – Picosun. ⚡ To scale, innovations need pilot environments, reference customers, industrial partners and growth capital. This is exactly the kind of chain reaction we accelerate at VTT. By combining scientific expertise, research infrastructure and close collaboration with industry, we turn deep technology into scalable business – faster than companies could alone 👇 https://hubs.ly/Q04BT85m0 #VTTBeyondTheObvious

Can machine learning and quantum computing help us discover the next generation of wood-based biomaterials? 🌲🧬 We’re looking for a Postdoctoral Researcher in Machine Learning & Cheminformatics to join VTT’s Rise to Challenge project Q-GEN: Quantum computing applications for future genomes and biomaterials. You’ll develop data-driven models that connect molecular representations with the properties of wood-based biopolymers by combining machine learning, physics-based simulations and experiments. “This is a genuinely new way of developing biomaterials. Instead of using computational simulations to explain what has already been observed in the laboratory, we are now using them to explore and identify promising material combinations before experiments begin. Bringing machine learning, physics-based simulation and quantum computing into the development of forest biomaterials opens up an exciting new research landscape.” — Mikko Mäkelä, Research Professor Working alongside experts in chemistry, mathematics, physics and quantum computing, you’ll contribute to interdisciplinary research at the interface of computational science and sustainable materials innovation. If you have a PhD in a relevant field, practical experience in data-driven modelling in at least one of the following: molecular representations, quantitative structure-activity relationships, or chemical/material informatics, and a curiosity for exploring new scientific approaches, we’d love to hear from you. Apply by 8 November 2026. 👉 Read more and apply here: https://lnkd.in/diQVucJ7

Finland's next deep-tech growth companies come from VTT 🧫🦾 The first public map of the Finnish deep-tech landscape shows that 31 of the 215 companies trace their roots back to VTT, more than to any university or research organisation. Creating globally competitive deep-tech companies starts years before a company exists, with research, technology development and the willingness to turn breakthroughs into business. The map also highlights 8 VTT-originated projects in the Research-to-Business pipeline. From research to startups, and from startups to new growth for Finland 🚀 Explore the map created by Henri Syvänen: http://deeptechfinland.fi #VTTBeyondTheObvious #DeepTech
