A word from our alumni entrepreneurs
"Helsinki Think Company helped me to see entrepreneurship as an option. The fact that there are other ways to be an entrepreneur besides making a profit, changing the world one step at a time with your own skills, also became clearer."

- Milla Kallio, founder of FEMMA Planning
“I believe that entrepreneurial skills are practical working life skills these days. Every student should learn the same things during their studies that I had a chance to learn at Helsinki Think Company myself”

- Samu Hannukkala, founder of Achievely
“I gained extremely valuable skills - about working life, entrepreneurship and the content of our business”

- Matti Petteri Pöntiö, founder of Y4 Works
We provide an inspiring platform where students can put their academic knowledge into action and learn valuable work-life skills.
