The innovation hub, funded by the European Union, Business Finland and the Innovation Fund of the City of Helsinki, aims to speed up the large-scale introduction of artificial intelligence in small and medium-sized companies.

FAIR’s technological focus is on artificial intelligence, but at the same time it also offers expertise in the field of extended reality (XR), cyber security, funding search and high-performance computing. The services are primarily free for SMEs. You can get more information about FAIR and its services by contacting or visiting: https://www.fairedih.fi.
