City of Vantaa, Talent Vantaa project
How people settle down and integrate into Finland and their own living area has been a discussed topic lately. From various perspectives, it is important that people who move to Vantaa settle down successfully and enjoy living in their new hometown. One important goal in the Business service’s Talent Vantaa project is to increase the visibility and awareness of different services that are related to integration among newcomers. The idea is also to create a “welcoming” culture in the city.
