Nokia Veturi program: Unlocking industrial 5G
Promoting productivity and sustainability across industries
Nokia’s Veturi program ‘Unlocking industrial 5G’ drives digital transformation across selected industries by combining radio technology, advanced algorithms and industry applications. Together with 120 ecosystem partners we have been developing new technology assets to improve productivity and sustainability.
Nokia’s Veturi mission is built on the following three pillars which together strengthen Finland’s role in its research and development portfolio:
- Speed: Capturing the Industry 5G opportunity calls for speeding up the development cycles and investments in SoC (System on Chip), radio and antenna technology research and SW development ecosystems which will support building cost-efficient solutions for industry partners.
- Scalability & operability: Analytics, AI and visualization driven operability solutions and supporting ecosystems are the backbone for delivering Industrial 5G that add value. Industry 5G networks are used for many verticals in different ways and modern software, optimization algorithms and situational awareness capabilities
- Solution focus: Co-innovation with industry partners is driving joint development of solutions that enable productivity and efficiency increase in every industry. This means focusing on selected industry ecosystems and driving development on areas where Finland is in a unique global position to test and deploy benchmark solutions.
Roadmap
Nokia’s Veturi project focuses on world leading research and development with the ecosystem partners related to the listed roadmap themes to pave the way to becoming the global leader on industrial 5G. This includes research in network and chip design, network management for industrial scale, and validating the end-to-end solutions with selected world-class industry partners in the industry verticals.

ALPHA
Description
The Alpha project studies how to deliver integrated situational awareness. For this, it uses an innovation platform/testbed that supports cross-agency cooperation and aggregates and increases the value of data. The result will be more efficient decision making. The project develop data models which enable the consolidation of data from various systems and data sources. Data models allow the representation of user specific situational awareness for networked, federated cross-agency operations. The innovation platform/testbed is used to verify created general data models.
