Funding has always been a very important topic for startups, but what is more interesting is the opportunity for startups to attract not just local but also foreign investors who can help them scale and enter new markets.

He is currently the CEO, Helsinki Business Hub Oy the international trade and investment promotion agency for the capital of Finland. One of the services of Helsinki Business Hub is to match the local startups to VC and corporate VC investors as well as corporates looking for new technology solutions.
