Oulu : the European NFC capital city ?

And the European NFC capital city is for the time being … Oulu (Finland)
On connaissait comme villes européennes NFC : Londres , Monaco, Strasbourg, Caen, Bordeaux, Nice (Sofia Antipolis), Aubagne, Grenoble, etc mais j’avoue que l’adhésion de la ville d’Oulu au NFC Forum mérite bien un post.
