DNA will provide Veikkaus with the largest company-specific network in Finland
The new agreement substantially deepens the cooperation between DNA and Veikkaus. Veikkaus has been a DNA customer since 2015, when their cooperation started with the company’s gaming room network.
“We’re proud that Veikkaus selected DNA as the supplier of this demanding network service. DNA has strong experience in supplying demanding network solutions both in Finland and internationally, and we will implement this delivery to the highest standard, too,” says Kenneth Grönroos, Sales Director, DNA.
Veikkaus’ new gaming network will comply with all the latest technical and information security requirements. It will also serve as an evolving state-of-the-art platform for Veikkaus’ future gaming development needs.
“Reliability is vitally important in all our gaming operations. Harmonising the telecommunications connections of our nationwide gaming network helps to facilitate the digitalisation of our sales locations and makes it easier for our customers to identify themselves. Ensuring uninterrupted connections is the key business consideration behind our new cooperation agreement,” says Timo Paajanen, Vice President, ICT Service Operations and Infrastructure at Veikkaus.
Service delivery will be launched this year with testing and piloting. The business locations will be connected to the harmonised network in stages, starting in April 2019.
The agreement between Veikkaus and DNA is for four years.

DNA:n ja Telian yhteisesti omistaman Suomen Yhteisverkon (SYV) 3G-palvelut päättyvät toukokuusta alkaen alueittain. 3G-verkon alasajo vapauttaa vanhan tekniikan käytössä olleet taajuudet ja resurssit turvallisemmille ja energiatehokkaammille 4G- ja 5G-verkkoteknologioille, jotka tarjoavat asiakkaille paremman käyttökokemuksen.

DNA:n käyttämä 5G-verkko yltää nyt Etelä-Karjalassa liki joka kolkkaan11.4.2024 09:55:00 EEST | Tiedote
DNA:n käyttämän 5G-verkon rakennustyöt Etelä-Karjalassa ovat saavuttaneet pisteen, jossa 5G-verkon peitto yltää maakunnassa liki kaikkialle ja asukkaiden tavoittavuus lähestyy 100 prosentin tasoa heidän asuinpaikkojensa perusteella. Koko maan tasolla kuuluvuudessa on kuitenkin yhä alueellista vaihtelua, minkä vuoksi verkkoa parannetaan jatkuvasti. Tavoite on erityisesti maantieteellisen peiton vahvistaminen ja kasvattaminen. Laskennallisesti 5G-verkko tavoittaa noin 96 prosenttia suomalaisista koko maassa, yhteensä yli 250 paikkakunnalla. 5G-rakentamisen myötä paranevat myös 4G-yhteydet.
DNA’s 5G network now reaches almost every corner of South Karelia11.4.2024 09:55:00 EEST | Press release
DNA’s 5G network in South Karelia now reaches nearly all parts of the region, and coverage of the population is approaching 100% based on residents’ location. At the national level, however, there are still regional variations in coverage, which is why the network is constantly being improved. In particular, DNA’s goal is to reinforce and increase geographic coverage. The 5G network has a theoretical coverage of around 96% of Finland’s population in more than 250 localities. The construction of 5G infrastructure also improves 4G connections.
