Details

We at OP are happy to see Finland attract talent and students from all around the world. Together we make a richer and more prosperous country. Being a student without a local bank account in a foreign country can be tricky, especially when you start to settle here and realise Finland’s love of digital banking, payments and identification. However, we banks are lacking the right processes and tools to be great at easily onboarding students that don't speak fluent Finnish or Swedish, or are only in the country for a limited amount of time.

We want to change this. Help us to help you. How could we improve the onboarding and servicing the students that come to Finland so that in addition to our top-notch education system, you can also enjoy easy digital banking, payments, and other services?

Your concept may be a presentation of slides, an act or a work of art that describes how the improved and best suited bank would work for foreign and exchange students.

Criteria for success:

- Deliver a concept/pitch of a new service or product that should exist

- Data and/or interviews to explain why your product would be desirable/useful for the freelancers

Useful resources:

- You can get access to Kristian Luoma from OP, to discuss about the ideas or getting access to people to interview.

Who can create a challenge?

  • If you want to publish a challenge on the NokiaPartners - Open communities and get support from the community to solve your problems, you first need to be registered on the platform. Then you need to contact the NokiaPartners - Open communities administrator in the Community section. They will create the challenge for you. Search for “admin” in the Community section, and click on “Nokia Admin” to contact and ask for your challenge to be created.

 

How do I submit an answer/proposal?

  • To contribute to a challenge, first open the challenge page, and then click on the "start proposal" button on the right-hand-side. A new page will appear with different text fields to fill in and attachments to include. You can also link to an existing project you have previously created on the platform. Once you have finished, click on submit.
  • If you save as draft, your submission will not be completed and will not be submitted to the challenge owner.

 

What happens once I submit?

  • Once you have submitted your proposal, your ‘Challenge Submission Form’ becomes accessible by the creator or the challenge, who can see and edit your proposal. Through the challenge page, only the owner of the challenge can see the different proposals submitted against his/her challenge. It is up to the challenge owner to inform participants about decisions and potential next steps.
  • To note, when you save a submission as draft, it is not submitted to the challenge owner.

 

Who can see my proposal?

  • The owner of the challenge, the submission review committee, and the NokiaPartners - Open communities Administrator team are the only ones who can see your proposed ideas and solutions to the challenge.

 

What happens if my proposal is successful?

  • For each challenge, submission review and selection process is different and the responsibility of the challenge owner. If your project is selected, the owner of the challenge will come back to you with further guidance on the next steps.

 

What happens if it is unsuccessful?

  • For each challenge, submission review and selection process is different and the responsibility of the challenge owner.
