public-private-people partnership run by a private company, Järvelin Design Ltd, and
the City of Espoo as one of the main partners. It is situated at the heart of the Espoo
Innovation Garden at Aalto University campus in Helsinki Metropolitan area. Urban
Mill community includes change makers from public and private sector, researchers,
entrepreneurs, students as well as local residents and other users of urban
