Suomessa kasvava joukko puhtaan siirtymän yrityksiä29.6.2024 00:04:21 EEST | Tiedote

Tesin (Suomen Teollisuussijoitus) tuoreen selvityksen mukaan Suomessa kasvaa puhtaan siirtymän kasvuyrityksiä hyvällä tahdilla ja lupaavilla kasvuluvuilla. Rahoitusta yritysten alkuvaiheeseen on saatavilla melko hyvin, mutta myöhemmän kasvun vaihe huolestuttaa: vain alle 15 prosenttia myöhemmistä rahoituskierroksista toteutetaan kokonaan kotimaisin voimin, joten riippuvuus kansainvälisistä sijoituksista on suurta.

A recent study by Tesi (Finnish Industry Investment) reveals that Finland is steadily increasing its number of cleantech growth companies and that these companies show promising growth rates. Financing availability for the early stages of these companies is fairly good, but there is cause for concern about financing for their later-stage growth. Less than 15% of their later-stage funding rounds are raised entirely domestically, so dependence on international investments is high.
