Finland’s technology industry exports returned to growth in 2025 after three years of decline. The value of goods exports rose by around two percent to €39 billion, maintaining the sector’s position as more than half of Finland’s total goods exports, according to the latest figures from a Finnish technology trade association.
Europe remained the most important market, accounting for roughly 65 percent of exports, although its share declined by about four percentage points from the previous year, the Technology Industries of Finland showed in a report yesterday. North America’s share rose to around 15 percent, while Asia remained stable at approximately 14 percent.
A significant increase in exports to the United States was driven by a single delivery. In June 2025, a ship worth €2 billion was exported, contributing to a 49 percent year-on-year increase in exports to the US. Without this delivery, exports to the US would have declined by around three percent.
Machinery and equipment accounted for nearly half of total exports, followed by electronics and electrical equipment at 28 percent and metal refining at 26 percent.
Taken together, the figures suggest a return to growth, but not a broad-based upswing. The improvement is partly explained by one large delivery, while demand elsewhere appears steadier rather than stronger.
