According to the new startup survey made by Business Tampere, the startups have succeeded in surviving the pandemic with fairly small consequences. The amount of young, innovative companies in the Tampere region has also grown compared to previous years.  

• Tampere Region startup survey is an annually made review on the state of the startup ecosystem.
• The survey was executed for the fourth time.  
• The aim of the survey is to find out the amount of startup companies in the Tampere Region, and to collect and analyze current information about the state of the companies. The information was confidentially collected through email, phone or other customer contacts during the spring 2021.  
• This year’s survey was executed as a commission by the City of Tampere.
