9 How PPPs can be enlarged towards P4.0?

10 The value of platform: It is not connected to any specific project, time, or theme. It evolves according to the needs of participants and creates consortiums on a continuous basis. It supports participants independently from public funding decisions and policies.

11 Public Private People Partnership HLG recommendation nro 8: Involve and mobilize citizens Who are the citizens? The ones who cannot formally invest in traditional RDI Inventors, Start-ups, Venture capitalists, unemployed persons, etc. How can we do this fast and without too much cost? Start from High-performing PPP actors Enlarge their activities and scope to involvement of People Make sure there is incentive for all (public sector rules in key role!) Case: Finnish technology industry initiative: P M per annum (Private sector, Venture capitalists, and public RDI funding 100M each) Commitment of ca. 40 CEOs and their organisations, no commitment from public sector yet DIMECC as the platform to carry out 300M /year of RDI programs open part of the activities and portfolio to all citizens.

12 Jaakonmeri test area Jaakonmeri is a test area is open to all companies, research institutes and others wishing to test autonomous maritime traffic, vessels, or related technologies. The test area will have excellent data connectivity and services available. The connectivity services, offered through DIMECC s partners, will be developed incrementally to offer various services to enhance the test experience. Jaakonmeri is the first P4.0 implementation in Finland.
