International sales promotion

An increasing number of ICT companies operating in northern Finland find themselves in a challenging situation when major technology companies are centralising their operations and cutting their subcontractor networks. This concerns the Oulu region as well as all of northern Finland. Significant new measures are needed to control this transition and redirect the development trends. The International Sales Promotion project is an example of such measures.

The International sales promotion (ISP) project aims at recognising and landing new customers for ICT companies operating in the Oulu region in a short amount of time in order to find employment for the labour resources that are about to be released and keep these professionals in the region. The project aims at implementing centralised ICT service and solution offerings targeted at certain market regions and target companies within these regions that are identified and targeted on the basis of a survey and the competencies of the involved business consortiums and expert teams.

The ERDF project is funded by the Council of Oulu Region and the city of Oulu.
