Strengthening European Defence and Security
DEFINE Ecosystem – Paving the Way to Defence Business Excellence in Häme, Finland
The Role of Stakeholders – Regions, Cities, Companies, and Academia in Building a Successful Innovation Defence Ecosystem
Defence Innovation Network Finland (DEFINE), initiated by the City of Riihimäki in Finland, is an international, high-level defence and security industry network. As the leading defence ecosystem, DEFINE brings together high-potential startups, greatest talents and end-users to create innovations that benefit both military and society as a whole.
This seminar will explore the critical need to boost the EU’s security and defence capacity, build defence-related ecosystems, and examine the role of key stakeholders—regions, cities, companies, and academia—in developing a successful ecosystem. Additionally, this event will provide insights into EU funding opportunities for defence and security initiatives.

The YoPA project, ‘a youth-centred preventive action approach towards co-created implementation of socially and physically activating environmental interventions’ obtained funding from Horizon Europe’s Health Cluster. The project addresses the multifaceted challenges of physical inactivity and health inequalities through a unique participatory approach. The project places teenagers between 12 and 18 years old in vulnerable situations at the forefront of the intervention process. The Institute of Tropical Medicine is a partner in the project and will conduct a Realist Evaluation to understand how youth co-creation contributes to improved adolescent health and well-being in four cities in Denmark, Netherlands, Nigeria and South Africa. By integrating its results and sharing its approach in an open access Toolbox, ITM aims to contribute to fostering sustainable, youth-led solutions for healthier urban environments.
