When you submit a contact request, you will quickly get clarity on the most sensible way to move forward in your situation. The Lapland Testbed contact information and the contact form on this page are the easiest way to start a discussion about health technology testing services, pilot projects and development environments in Finland. You can reach out at any stage, from an early idea to a prototype or a more mature product. We also welcome project partners and other development collaborators. If you are not sure which service fits you best, that is completely fine. A short description of your situation is enough to get started.
When a company contacts us, the goal is to turn your needs into a clear, practical plan. You will receive a grounded suggestion on what to test first and why. We can also help define the right target group for testing and the most useful way to collect results. If needed, we will discuss how to scope a pilot and what a realistic timeline looks like. Often, the first conversation already highlights the critical points that affect adoption and implementation.
1) Idea stage or conceptWe start with a short discovery discussion. We identify the key use case and define one clear test question. Based on that, we can run a light feedback round and agree on the next actions.
2) Prototype or development versionWe design a practical test that reveals the biggest friction points. This can be a guided user test, a remote evaluation, or a focused pilot. The aim is to deliver concrete improvement suggestions quickly.
3) More mature product or preparing for marketThe focus shifts to validation and scaling the pilot. We refine the metrics and the execution plan so the results support decisions about implementation and further development.
We usually reply with a short follow-up question or propose an initial meeting. After that, we agree on the goal and the approach. Once the testing or pilot is completed, you receive a summary of findings, a prioritized list of development actions, and a recommendation for the next step. This may include a new testing round, expanding the pilot, or expert sparring.
If you want to start right away, use the form and briefly tell us what you are developing, who the solution is for, and what your goal is (for example improving usability, running a pilot, or user validation). The Lapland Testbed contact information is available on this page, and contacting us is a low-threshold way to begin collaboration.
