Part 2 in our mini documentary on Helsinki as a future startup hub asks two important questions. Can Helsinki be it, and what pieces are missing for Helsinki to become a startup hub?
We get to hear Alexander Stubb talk about the work being done from the government to support this ambition. Scott Sage from DFJ Esprit says Helsinki is one of the undiscovered gems in the tech industry.
The attitude and mentality of people are both important parts of a startup hub, says minister Stubb, infrastructure is also important. Aaron Patzer highlights the heritage from Linux, Nokia and MySQL. Peter Vesterbacka from Rovio says we are on the right track.
In part 1, we hear the visiting founders presenting themselves. We also hear that Aalto Entrepreneurship Society has some ambitious goals for Finland in the future.
