For the Finnish national economy maritime sector is essential via two ways: i) by enabling the transportation of goods for exporting and importing industries and their needs nationally and ii) provision of equipment and technology to global maritime market. Due to statistics standards information on economic acitivity and added value generated by maritime sector is fragmented. TSE research supports to understand what is the impact of maritime sector and it’s business overall. Also regional development aspects and different impact analysis of clusters and subclusters is researched at TSE
For maritime transportation, safety and security are critical necessities globally and also domestic waters with special requirements related to for example narrow fairways and winter conditions. Aiming for high safety culture, continues improvement and preparedness need to be supported. TSE contributes in research that supports to authorities’ collaboration, security of supply or cybersecurity. TSE staff is regularly involved in e.g. commenting and analysing to different regulation or policy proposals.
Maritime@TSE supports the maritime industry to discover business opportunities in the dual transition to sustainability and digitalisation. Our focus is to embed business and service design aspects to processes, operations and technology.
Increasing demands for sustainability and rapid advancements in digital technologies necessitate changes in maritime business logics both inside one company and in interfaces with other companies. While challenging, this also provides new avenues for business model innovation and the provision of new service-based solutions.
