The SOTE AI Vision 2035 sets out a Finnish joint vision for AI use in healthcare and social welfare.

Finland’s National Roadmap for Data Centres is a government‑commissioned report prepared in 2025 that proposes national objectives and measures for the development of high‑value data centres, explicitly linking data‑centre location to electricity grid capacity, fossil‑free energy availability and the management of growing AI‑related computing demand.

Established in 2024, this national AI ecosystem for social and health services fosters collaboration among public authorities, businesses, and researchers to promote AI integration in healthcare.

The TEHDAS2 initiative, coordinated by the Finnish Innovation Fund (Sitra), is a collaborative project involving 29 European countries.
