Finland’s extensive network of biobanks and research centers is driving a global healthcare revolution. The biobanks, fused with Finland’s single-payer healthcare system, provide a comprehensive mapping of the entire population structure, presenting unique opportunities for disease research. Crucially, biobank samples are linked with relevant longitudinal healthcare data spanning decades. The collective approach involves public and private organizations and benefits from domestic legislative refinements and supportive government measures. With a projection of substantial growth in the healthcare sector, Finland’s unique strengths, including data quality and regulatory systems, position it as a global leader in healthcare innovation.
