VTT CityTune® is designed to develop unified KPIs and to model the complexity of cities in order to find the most effective projects and support decision-making.

Once the projects have been identified, a sustainable finance platform helps cities to find green funding by connecting potential investors with the projects.

  • Reach better transparency
  • Anticipate future developments, test what-if scenarios in a modelling environment and gain valuable insight for strategic decisions
