Finland's most connected companies

How are the decision makers of listed companies in Finland connected? Using R for collecting decision maker data and D3 for visualizing the results, I have created this network chart (sorry for the ugly iframe):


Connections are the number of connections to other boards from one company to other. KONE's board members are for instance on 13 other boards. The most connected companies on Helsinki's stock exchange are Kone, Sponda and Teleste.

Company Connections
KONE Oyj 13
Sponda Oyj 12
Teleste Oyj 10
Outotec Oyj 10
Cargotec Oyj 10

The data has been filtered out so that only companies with at least one connection to another company are included. The data is collected from finder.fi and includes the company's management, board members, and other people with the right to sign for the company.
