Ventures
Our Neova Ventures business uses its in-house product development activities to create new and responsible high-added-value products based on refining local natural materials and by-products in accordance with the principles of the circular economy. Ventures is also responsible for the cooperation with higher education institutions and research centres as well as for innovation activities across business boundaries. When a business initiative reaches the stage where commercialisation is possible, it will be separated into a business of its own or transferred to one of the existing divisions.
