Investment Support
BILLIONS IN INDUSTRIAL INVESTMENTS
GigaVaasa Industrial Area
As part of this long-term development initiative, the Municipality of Mustasaari and the City of Vaasa have invested in the GigaVaasa area by preparing an industrial and chemical operations zoning plan (T/Kem) and developing infrastructure, including paved roads and water and sewage networks. The area also has a completed 110 kV electrical substation, making GigaVaasa particularly attractive to energy-intensive industries.
Companies establishing operations in the region also benefit from a wide range of educational and research opportunities, from preschool to university, available in Finnish, Swedish and English. These opportunities support business success and contribute to the well-being of employees and their families.
Companies within the established EnergyVaasa cluster offer extensive business collaboration opportunities and diverse career prospects for families relocating to the region. In addition, convenient flight connections to Helsinki and Stockholm make international travel and returning home significantly easier.
Pitkän tähtäimen hankkeessa Mustasaaren kunta ja Vaasan kaupunki investoineet GigaVaasan alueelle valmiin T/Kem-kaavan ja infrastruktuurin päällystettyine teineen sekä vesi- ja viemäriverkostoineen. Alueella on myös oma 110kV-sähköasema valmiina, joten energia-intensiiviselle teollisuudelle GigaVaasan on todella houkutteleva paikka.
Investointien perässä alueelle tulevien yritysten menestystä ja työntekijöiden viihtyvyyttä parantavat monipuoliset koulu-, opiskelu ja tutkimusmahdollisuudet aina esikoulusta yliopistoon asti ja joita voi toteuttaa suomeksi, ruotsiksi tai englanniksi.
Jo olemassa olevan EnergyClusterin yritykset tarjoavat monipuolisia yhteistyömahdollisuuksia yrityksille ja uravaihtoehtoja perheellisille. Lisäksi monipuoliset lentoyhteydet Helsinkiin ja Tukholmaan nopeuttavat maailmalle pääsyä ja kotiinpaluuta huomattavasti.
