SUMMARY
Wireless Innovation between Finland and the U.S. (WiFiUS) provides a platform for building long-term research and education collaboration between the two world leaders in the field of wireless networking.
WiFiUS will connect nine U.S. institutions consisting of four Finnish research organizations in the area of dynamic radio spectrum access, all ofwhich are independently supported by the Academy of Finland and Tekes (the Finnish Funding Agency for Technology and Innovation).
This project establishes a new virtual institute, Wireless Innovation between Finland and U.S. (WiFiUS), for promoting and sustaining mutually-beneficial research and education collaborations between US and Finland in the area of wireless networks.
The institute provides an environment for creative international collaboration that leverages the synergies and resources for research and education in the two countries in order to accelerate the rate of development of research innovations and the development of talent and of a work-force capable of excelling in the a new highly interconnected world.
