Deve­lopment Projects

Involved in growth and development

The Lahti Business Region is an attractive and evolving environment that is ready for new experiments and bold ideas.

Its central location in the logistics zone of Southern Finland, diverse business scene, communal business networks and interesting city culture create oppor­tunities for growth.

The Lahti region offers interesting development projects and a wide range of business oppor­tunities.

Paavola

Multiple significant renovation and new construction projects are simultaneously underway in the area; old properties are being demolished from a central location, freeing up land for extensive new residential, service and commercial construction.  The area has been specifically designed for tall buildings.

The regenerating Paavola offers an opportunity to pilot solutions for e.g. renewable energy, energy efficiency, low-carbon building materials, reuse and dismantlability of building components, as well as other circular economy products.

Important cultural functions, such as Lahti City Theatre, the city library and the new Lahti Museum of Visual Arts Malva, as well as a major learning centre, Paavola Campus, are located in and around Paavola.

Salpausselkä Sport Park

The Lahti Sports Centre, Kisapuisto Sports Park and Ranta-Kartano area form an active sports and fitness zone called Salpausselkä Sport Park, which offers recreational oppor­tunities in almost a hundred different sports and a setting for inter­national events.

Lahti region development projects

In the surrounding munici­palities of Lahti, such as Hollola, Iitti and Asikkala, there are interesting areas for development and future projects - from aviation and motor racing track to event arena and green logistics hub.

Niemi – from an industrial and harbour area into a campus area

Located on the shores of Lake Vesijärvi, the trans­formation of Niemi from an industrial and harbour area continues actively. The area has become an inter­national-level hub of higher education and research. Among others, it is home to the Lahti University Campus and LAB University of Applied Sciences. Kempower and the Electric Mobility Research Center (EMRC), as well as the Food Pilot Plant product development environment, are also located in the area. Both campuses in Niemi host educational and business activities.

The Niemi shoreline is undergoing radical trans­formation: The old silos of Polttimo will be demolished, and the area's planning will continue based on an archi­tectural competition. The future vision is for Niemi to be one of Southern Finland's most important research and higher education hubs with a functional combination of workplaces, education, research and homes - as well as recreational functions, boating, a waterfront and green areas.
