Spoiler Alert: In the newsletter, I will tell about an upcoming visit to a legendary Finnish company in the region and a complimentary online session on the American perspective of entrepreneurial management, among other insights. 🇺🇸

 

Materials: Please send any materials to me by Wednesday—for instance, news from the region, upcoming or past events, internship opportunities, etc. 🆕

 

Community Building: I am also building community by mapping Finnish businesses in New England, Finns who run US companies, and Finnish companies and leaders exploring the region. I’m thankful for any contacts. 🇫🇮


All the best,
