Createch Lahti Region
Where The Creatives, Technology And Industry Meet
The Createch Lahti Region project brings together technology, creative and service sectors to develop new, people-centered solutions. The focus is on co-development between companies, where companies from different areas of strength combine their expertise to create services and products that can scale directly to global markets.
The Createch Lahti Region project starts with a business survey identifying the strengths and development needs of companies in the region and finding the most suited companies for cooperation. The outcome of the survey will serve as a basis for building the Createch community, a multidisciplinary and long-term network that will support co-development between companies. In August 2025, we hold an event where larger companies present their development needs, to which local companies then can offer solutions. Regular breakfast events will also be organised throughout Autumn and Winter to give businesses the opportunity to network.
In the co-developing phase, facilitators identify companies whose skills complement each other and whose cooperation can lead to new products and services to be commercialized. Mentors will help companies work with their partners and steer them towards new opportunities for cross-industry collaboration.

Social care providers can use game technologies to create interactive and participatory applications for care and rehabilitation.
