Teknikum continues its partnership with the Finnish men’s artistic gymnastics national team – Shared values, long-term goals and results drive the collaboration
Teknikum Group is proud to continue its partnership with the Finnish Gymnastics Federation by supporting the Men’s Artistic Gymnastics National Team also in 2025. This cooperation reflects Teknikum’s commitment to responsible business practices and to promoting Finnish performance – in both sports and industry.
Originally a two-year sponsorship agreement, the partnership has now evolved into a long-term collaboration based on shared values and real, measurable impact.
Teknikum’s support has been invaluable
– We are extremely grateful for Teknikum’s support and happy that this important collaboration continues, says Oskar Kirmes, National Team Coordinator and Captain.
– With Teknikum’s help, we’ve been able to advance our national program both in training and competition. The support has enabled athletes of different ages to pursue their goals – and the results speak for themselves.
Concrete results on the international stage
The partnership has contributed to impressive international success:
- Emil Soravuo’s World Championship bronze on floor (2021)
- Joona Reiman’s European Youth and EYOF gold on vault (2022)
- Finland’s best team result ever – 10th place at the 2024 European Championships
Supporting the entire gymnastics ecosystem
The national team currently includes 57 athletes across three levels:
- Senior National Team: 12 gymnasts
- Junior National Team: 21 gymnasts
- Youth Development Group: 24 gymnasts
Teknikum’s support helps strengthen the entire system – not just the elite level. This mirrors Teknikum’s approach to product development: long-term investment in talent, structure and performance at every stage.
Shared values drive the partnership
The collaboration is built on mutual values: safety, quality, ambition, and responsibility. These principles are central to both artistic gymnastics and Teknikum’s industrial operations.
In gymnastics, responsibility means providing a safe, supportive, and motivating environment for athletes. At Teknikum, it means offering durable, safe, and customer-focused solutions – designed with the same care and precision.
As an expert in polymer products, Teknikum sees a clear parallel between the qualities required in sport and those expected of technical materials: flexibility, resilience, and strength. Whether in the gym or on the factory floor, these values unite our efforts.
