How Helsinki is transforming into a real-world lab for innovation
In the newest Tallinnovation Podcast episode, we dive into how Helsinki is transforming into a real-world lab for innovation — and what Tallinn (and others) can learn from it. With guest Kimmo Heinonen, Head of Testbed Helsinki, we explore: A Japanese solar window tested in a Nordic hospital – and it worked in low-light conditions! Helsinki's first warehouse built almost entirely from recycled materials like old windows and mineral wool. What kind of companies actually succeed in city partnerships? (Hint: it's not about instant deals.) Kimmo shares lessons on agile urban development, sustainable construction, innovation culture inside city departments, and how to turn pilots into scalable solutions.
