Digital Toolbox: Innovation for Nordic Tourism SMEsJuha Tuulaniemi
This report focuses on meeting the practical needs of tourism businesses in the Nordic countries
when adopting and employing ICT in their operations. Taking into account the structure and
challenges of the tourism industry in the Nordic region, the different case studies in this report
represent different approaches to efficient use of ICT, offering a toolbox consisting of suggestions
on how to take advantage of ICT for market communication, customer knowledge, service design
and innovation.
The report is a result of a collaborative project between 6 Nordic partners (research institutions and
business clusters based in Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Sweden, Southern Norway, and Northern
Norway) which focused on identifying and developing ICT tools for innovation in Nordic tourism
small businesses and destinations.
The main objectives of the project have been to generate knowledge on ICT tools, to create
improved commercial tools and concepts and also to build a strong Nordic cooperation between
academic institutions and business clusters. The tools in the toolbox created as the main
contribution from this project are all innovative and should as such serve as opportunities for both
commercial development and implementation in various subsectors of the tourism industry and
facilitate increased competitiveness. A strong Nordic cooperation between the tourism stakeholders
and development and research institutes involved in the project is also an important outcome.
The project has been implemented through parallel case studies which are all ground breaking in
terms of research and development for innovation in tourism. Regular meetings and workshops
have facilitated the exchange of knowledge and ideas between the case studies as well as the
identification of common ideas and results. Multiple methods have been employed in the different
cases of the project according to the nature of each case study. Two of the cases have developed and
implemented ICT prototypes in the form of a new innovative mobile application (Denmark) and a
business intelligence process for analyzing user generated content in a destination management
information system (Sweden). In the Finish case ethnographic methods were used to develop a
service design method and tool specifically for the tourism industry. The Icelandic case employed
an online survey and website analysis for the purpose of building a webpage-design toolbox.
Interview methods as well as review and participant observation was used in Northern Norway to
explore effects of implementing short films as digital marketing tools for experience based
businesses. Also, in the case in Southern Norway in-depth interviews were used to identify open
innovation practices for experience based tourism businesses.

3. From research to innovations. From innovations into products. The Finnish Centres of Expertise Programme (CoE) is built to accelerate growth of innovative SME's by combining Finnish technology centres with companies and universities, and by improving their innovation capacity. lays the ground for diverse innovation activities in which high-level research is combined with technological, design and business competence. is a tool for regional innovation, which contains ready-made operating models and networks for the national and international markets. offers networks and services for companies, universities, universities of applied sciences and research institutions. has introduced cross science innovations and even made it possible to develop commercial products from those innovations.
4. Basic principles of CoE Bottom-up approach: local strategies meet national Innovation policy targets Triple helix: interaction between academia and the private and public sectors Based on regional strengths and specialization (bottom up) coordinated on national level by cross-sectoral committee represented by ministeries, research organisations an industry representatives (top down)
5. Operational model of CoE 13 national competence clusters in 21 regional Centres of Expertise (Regional technology centres and science parks work as operators) Each competence cluster is comprised of network of 4-7 regional Centre of Expertise Competence clusters can be Technology-driven (e.g. Nanotechnology, HealthBio) Application-driven (e.g. Living business) Industry-driven (Forest cluster) Service-driven (Tourism and Experience Management) May combine previous Competitive tendering for basic funding 20 million euros annually, Government 50%, Municipalities +50% RDI projects are funded through EU structural funds, EU framework programmes, Tekes – the Finnish Funding Agency for Technology and Innovation etc.
