Summary
At the University of Helsinki incubator program I support and mentor researchers, PhD students and senior professionals - the aspiring social entrepreneurs who are developing solutions to address societal challenges. With a passion for creating positive impact, I leverage my extensive experience in business development, strategy, and innovation to help them turn their ideas into reality. I also serve as a strategic advisor at startups and scaleups. Drawing on my background in business management and IT, I assist research teams in translating their scientific breakthroughs into marketable products and services. With over 20 years of international experience in high-growth ICT sectors, I have co-founded and led several successful technology startups, including one that pioneered the world's first Wi-Fi solutions. I enjoy collaborating with diverse teams and partners, and negotiating with C-level executives across various industries. I am always eager to learn new skills and explore new opportunities in the digital domain.
