The role of the public and private sectors will no longer be black and white : it ’ s more collaborative . Helsinki is the platform that many companies need to try something new .
“ We are trying to solve real problems for real people in Helsinki ,” he concludes . “ It ’ s not just about data : it ’ s about better decisions and better approaches to city issues . When it comes to our services – be they technical , street maintenance , construction or logistics – we don ’ t want to deliver services the way we always have . We want to collaborate with these innovators and networks to renew and improve our city . This program is very much about social capital ; it ’ s about improving the quality of life for our residents and our companies .”
