LöydettyjĂ€ ratkaisuja â–Ș Kokeilukulttuuria tarvitaan: lisÀÀ startup-henkistĂ€ kokeilukulttuuria julkisen hallinnon organisaatioihin, jotta puolustus- ja turvallisuusteknologia saadaan nopeasti markkinoille. â–Ș Naton tarjoamiin kilpailukykyĂ€ edistĂ€viin mahdollisuuksiin tulisi tarttua pian: Nato-osaamiskeskusta tulisi hakea Suomeen. â–Ș Puolustusvoimien toimintamalleja ketterĂ€mmiksi: enemmĂ€n yhteistyötĂ€ startup-kentĂ€n kanssa ja mahdollisuukia uusien teknologiainnovaatioiden testaamiselle. 👇👇👇👇
