Incap Helps Develop Future Talent in Robotics and Engineering in Finland
May 21, 2025 | IncapEstimated reading time: 1 minute

Incap Corporation continues to invest in the next generation of technology professionals in Finland through its involvement in two national initiatives focused on technical and vocational education. In 2025, the company supported the Innokas programming and robotics tournament and the Taitaja vocational skills competition, promoting innovation, practical skills, and career opportunities for young people in technology.
Encouraging innovation through Innokas
For the second consecutive year, Incap supported the Innokas programming and robotics tournament, an annual event that brings together hundreds of students from across Finland. Schoolchildren in grades 1 to 9 took part in creative robotics, programming, and artificial intelligence challenges designed to spark interest in technology. These activities helped students develop key practical skills like teamwork, critical thinking, and problem-solving through engaging, hands-on experiences.
The 2025 competition began with regional events in the spring, culminating in the national final in May. Incap’s support helped ensure that young minds had the opportunity to engage with technology and build essential skills for the future. An Incap representative attended the regional event in Helsinki to celebrate student achievements and highlight the company’s support for Finland’s emerging technology talent.
Supporting vocational excellence through Taitaja
Incap also sponsored the Taitaja 2025 Championship of vocational skills, Finland’s largest event dedicated to vocational education and training. Taitaja brought together over 400 vocational students from across the country to compete in more than 40 skill categories.
As a sponsor, Incap contributed to organising the national competition and provided prizes for the top three competitors in the Electronics category. Representatives from Incap attended the national finals to show their support for vocational education and the development of future industry professionals. Through its involvement, Incap actively promotes awareness of careers in electronics manufacturing and highlights the importance of vocational training to both students and industry stakeholders.
Celebrating 40 years by investing in Finland’s future
As the company marks its 40th anniversary in 2025, Incap continues to support initiatives like Innokas and Taitaja that promote education, innovation, and the development of future skills. Through these efforts, Incap helps engage and inspire young people, preparing them for successful careers and building a workforce capable of meeting the evolving needs of the electronics manufacturing industry.

Training AI Together—Without Sharing Private Data
05/21/2025 | Nolan Johnson, SMT007 MagazineArtificial intelligence models work better with more data. While individual EMS companies can certainly create plenty of data over time, the broader the data set, the more insightful the AI results can be. Ben Rachinger, a research assistant at Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg, received the NextGen Best Paper at IPC APEX EXPO 2025. His research asks: What if a model could be created that allowed industry-wide data in the model, while still protecting proprietary information?
