NaturVention and Tekes Launched a Half-Million Cooperation Project
Finnish Funding Agency for Innovation Tekes and NaturVention (Naava) have launched a research and development project of 500,000 euros.
The aim of the project is to facilitate NaturVention's international growth. The initiative focuses on five entities. The projects related to the initiative include among others strengthening our IPR protection, research on the impacts of our solutions, and development of our IT and remote control systems, and services.
As a part of the initiative, we will research the impact that our unique Naturbo™ technology has on the indoor air profile, especially on the microbiological level. The researches, that will be conducted in cooperation with Finnish universities, will reveal more information about the effect that indoor air and especially natural indoor air have on our health. On the whole, we are part of the process of developing Finland into an indoor air expert whose products and know-how are sought after all around the world.
Service combining nature and technology solves major economical challenges
Best natural indoor climate is beneficial to various target groups. We have as our clients, among others: property owners, schools, hospitals, kindergartens, offices, health clubs, and various other spaces. A very wide variation of places where indoor air can be improved.
The main goal of the project is to expedite the development of NaturVention into a remarkable international growth company that aims to solve the problems of indoor air quality and, therefore, improve the quality of life all around the world. Globally the demand of naturally clean air is substantial.
In Finland, the expenses of indoor air problems are three billion euros annually. In Northern America the corresponding sum is 200 billion dollars. Furthermore, Tekes estimates that China will invest 200 billion dollars in air purification technologies within the next five years. The growing number of inquiries for cooperation from Asia shows the severity of the indoor air quality problems in Asian metropolises.
With our technology we can solve the majority of indoor climate problems in China. Our services combine nature and technology. Therefore, health and global trends such as greenness, ecological pioneering, and naturalness are very important to us.
The expansion to new markets has already started in St. Petersburg and Moscow. At the moment we are negotiating with partners in several other cities. In the future, our aim is to bring our innovative solutions to those metropolises that suffer from air pollution and, therefore, need our help the most.
