City of Tampere: A Concept and Implementation Competition for a New Sports Campus Will Begin
Tampere – the most attractive city in Finland – will gain a new modern cluster of exercise and sports. The concept and implementation competition of the Hakametsä Sport Campus project will start in June and continue until November 2020. The development of the Hakametsä area, 14 hectares in total, is a new kind of an investment in elite sport, sports business, and the promotion of sports, health, and wellbeing.
The aim of the competition is to find a partner for the City of Tampere in the development of the area. The task of the competitors is to prepare a comprehensive concept plan for the Hakametsä area that fulfils the requirements set by the City for the sports network and complies with the vision for the Hakametsä Sport Campus. Companies and business consortia with sufficient financial and operational resources can participate in the competition. The competitors are expected to form multidisciplinary expert groups.
The Hakametsä area is known for Finnish ice hockey that has been played in the Tampere Ice Stadium since 1965. When the Elite League games transfer to the new UROS LIVE arena, Hakametsä will become a diverse sports and wellbeing venue.
The vision for the Hakametsä Sport Campus combines exercise, sports, operating premises, business premises, and housing into a modern entity with synergy between the functions. The Hakametsä area is located roughly three kilometres from the centre of Tampere in a rapidly growing area and along the (new) tramline connection that will start operations in 2021.
For further information and instructions for participating in the concept and implementation competition, please visit the City of Tampere website. The competition language is Finnish.

Ant International Partners with Google’s Universal Commerce Protocol to Expand AI Capabilities12.1.2026 03:15:00 EET | Press release
Ant International, a leading global payment, digitisation, and financial technology provider, is collaborating on the launch of Google’s Universal Commerce Protocol (UCP), a new open standard for agentic commerce that works across the entire shopping journey — from discovery and buying to post-purchase support. UCP establishes a common language for agents and systems to operate together across consumer surfaces, businesses, and payment providers to enable commerce. So instead of requiring unique connections for every individual agent, UCP enables all agents to interact easily. UCP is built to work across verticals and is compatible with existing industry protocols like Agent2Agent (A2A), Agent Payments Protocol (AP2), and Model Context Protocol (MCP). “For agentic commerce to scale, it’s critical for the industry to align on a common set of standards. We are proud to have Ant International endorse the Universal Commerce Protocol as the foundation for that future,” said Ashish Gupta, VP
