About the project
The SHAPE ecosystem led by Mirka concentrates on four areas ins ustainable material solutions in production; repair, reuse and remanufacturing solutions; boosting circularity; and intelligence throughout value chains. The project creates an opportunity for the whole ecosystem to develop new innovative remanufacturing solutions, create new jobs and strengthen the competitiveness of the Finnish industry in the coming years.
Impact of the project:
Mirka’s surface finishing solutions and the SHAPE ecosystem aim together to decrease the carbon footprint of the European industry by 100 Mt, creating export opportunities worth several billion for the Finnish industry. The total investment of Mirka, Business Finland and the Finnish industry in developing net carbon negative solutions will be around €200 m during the next five years.
Funding instrument Business Finland Veturi
Spinverse’s role
Spinverse supported Mirka in their successful project proposal process and helped to build and facilitate the SHAPE ecosystem together with Mirka.
The wide experience and professional expertise of the Spinverse team has been elemental in building the ambitious SHAPE ecosystem plan. We look forward to taking the next step in our long-term partnership and make it happen in practice..

About the project
The LIFE Lit4Nature aims to establish a stronger, evidence-based system for biodiversity conservation and restoration across Lithuania. Major focus will be placed on strengthening the national biodiversity monitoring system, improving data collection and integration and on introducing innovative monitoring approaches to support evidence-based conservation and restoration decisions.
Impact of the project:
The project aims to boost stronger biodiversity and ecosystem recovery across Lithuania through nationwide conservation and restoration. Further, it wants to achieve better national coordination for efficient and well targeted conservation measures and their funding.
Funding instrument LIFE Programme
Spinverse’s role
Spinverse experts supported the coordinator throughout the two-stage LIFE Strategic Nature Project application process from concept note development to submitting the final proposal.
The support included workshops that brought together the proposal team to sharpen the project concept and focus the application on the most relevant and critical aspects of Lithuania's
Prioritised Action Framework for Natura 2000 and the forthcoming National Restoration Plan.
Spinverse’s strategic guidance, hands-on support and thorough quality reviews helped us focus on the critical aspects, strengthen the proposal logic and present its impacts convincingly. Their LIFE expertise gave our team confidence and contributed significantly to the proposal’s high quality and successful funding outcome.”
