The collaboration between Mipro and Savonlinna Vesi began back in 2003, when the automation system at the Vääräsaari surface water plant was updated to Mipro’s system. At the same time, the control system for the Pihlajaniemi wastewater treatment plant was integrated into the system provided by Mipro. Later, the treatment plant’s automation was completely modernised.
Mipro Oy will supply the Object Controller System (OCS) for the first commercial ERTMS/ETCS track section (EKA) of the Digirail project, covering the Lielahti–Rauma/Pori line, as part of the modernisation of Finland’s railways. The Digirail project will upgrade Finland’s train traffic control system to improve safety. In this project, Finland is acting as a European pioneer, utilising the highest safety-level technology and solutions that comply with the EULYNX standard.
Attending InnoTrans 2024 for the first time was an experience I’ll never forget. As the product manager for ETCS at Mipro, I’ve heard a lot about the scale and significance of the event, but nothing prepared me for the sheer size of the exhibition and the energy that surrounded it. It was both exciting and a little bit overwhelming!
Simulations play a key role in the development of any real-world system. They use real data or scenarios to mimic the functions of these systems. Developers and operators use simulations every day during the development and operation of systems in order to test specific scenarios and identify how the systems will respond under such circumstances. Simulations can be used to predict outcomes for any hypothetical situation or future occurrence of a scenario. During system development, the key benefit of using simulation is a cost-effective system with reduced risks. During testing, it is the performance, efficiency, and reliability of the system. Once the system has been deployed, the developers can use simulations to explore specific scenarios based on the input data.
Securing a job in their own field is important for students. Many aspire to part-time employment while studying, hoping to earn extra income and gain experience. However, I’ve found combining study and work challenging, which is why I’ve determined that the best approach for me is to work full-time during summers and focus on studying during the academic year.

Today’s organisations are constantly faced with new security threats and vulnerabilities. In addition, the operating environments are constantly changing. Managing this and responding to changing threats in a timely manner requires systematic security practices and continuous improvement and monitoring.
