Municipal Barometer 2026
The Municipal Barometer is a survey conducted by Suomen Yrittäjät every two years. It examines cooperation between municipalities and entrepreneurs, as well as the state of local business policy at the national, regional and municipal levels.
The Municipal Barometer measures how successfully municipalities promote entrepreneurship. We examine entrepreneurs’ views on how business-friendly their home municipality is, what has been successful, and where there is a need for development.

Why should you respond to the survey?
- You can give feedback and evaluate your own municipality’s performance: what works well and what needs improvement?
- Municipalities receive valuable feedback on their operations, including zoning and permit processes.
- We, the entrepreneurs’ associations, gain information on the issues we need to influence on behalf of our members at the municipal level.
- Municipalities and municipally owned companies providing services to entrepreneurs receive important feedback from entrepreneurs on the business services they offer.
To ensure that the results genuinely reflect entrepreneurs’ opinions, it is important that every entrepreneur shares their perspective.
