In addition, they are able to validate their solutions through the and other innovation networks. These testbeds, provided by the City of Helsinki, offer physical or virtual environments for developing and testing new products and services under real-life conditions. 

The Incubation Program is designed for early-stage EdTech startups that are ready to advance from prototype to minimum viable product and drive transformation in education both in Finland and internationally. The program begins on October 28, 2024, and ends on January 31, 2025.
