MDI helped the city of Kauhava to draft a new strategy. Previously Kauhava had identified the need of determining its main attractiveness factors. MDI executed profiles for the main groups who had moved in and also for those groups who had moved elsewhere. The main groups were analyzed based on their age, occupation, education and income level. As a part of the project, MDI identified different financial incentives what Finnish cities use in order to be more attractive and competitive. As an outcome of the project, MDI provided multiple solutions for the city of Kauhava in order to enhance their attractiveness. The project was finished in September 2018.
