VASEK is a growth enabler and a helpful partner for companies
Vaasa Region Development Company VASEK’s mission is to improve conditions in the business world. Firstly, the company offers a wide range of business services, and secondly, it develops and markets the region as a whole. VASEK operates across seven municipalities within a 50 km radius of Vaasa.
“We are a comprehensive service unit that actively works in close cooperation with businesses. We provide advice and support to companies in all sectors, at all stages of their lifecycle”, says CEO Stefan Råback.
VASEK celebrates its 20th anniversary in 2023. Throughout its long history, the development company has skilfully helped to build an excellent business environment in the region in cooperation with various actors. VASEK has its sights on the future and is investing heavily in developing the business environment even further. Logistics is one of the key factors affecting companies’ success. That is why it is one of the areas of development VASEK is working on, every day.
“Good transport connections and easy accessibility are important for the whole economy. It is quite unique that companies in our region have such easy access to air, sea, road, and rail connections to carry their goods and people”, says development manager Riitta Björkenheim.
The uplifting atmosphere and co-creating are generating the Vaasa region’s famous invincible ecosystem. Through cooperation across municipal and organisational boundaries, the entire region’s economy has developed magnificently. The extensive education and research sector ensures that both the region’s talent, and the products and services offered, are of world-class quality.
“If you asked me what is at the heart of the Vaasa region’s success, I would say its economic and intellectual capital, skilled workforce and efficient logistics. At VASEK, we are working to maintain and boost all of them. We are an enabler of growth”, says Råback.
