Maria 01 Community Breakfast: Best Practices for Building Businesses Inclusively
Welcome to the next Maria 01 Community Breakfast! This time, we will be discussing a very important topic: Building Businesses Inclusively.
We are thrilled to invite you to our next community breakfast on April 10th at the Maria 01 Campus.
Join us for an engaging and insightful morning, complete with a panel discussion and networking opportunities, all while enjoying a delicious breakfast on the house. This time, we will be discussing a very important topic: Building Businesses Inclusively.
We are grateful to the Startup Foundation, Suomen startup-yhteisö, FVCA – Pääomasijoittajat, Finnish Business Angels Network (FiBAN), Slush, and Aalto Entrepreneurship Society for conducting a survey on inappropriate behaviour and practices in the startup ecosystem. Josefiina Kotilainen, CEO of the Startup Foundation will be sharing the key findings from the survey, followed by a panel discussion moderated by Sarita Runeberg, CEO of Maria 01. The panel will feature prominent figures from the Finnish startup ecosystem, including Timo Ahopelto, Founding Partner at Lifeline Ventures, Kristo Ovaska, Founder of Smartly.io, and Jasmin Assulin, CEO & Founding Partner at deidei, who will give their perspectives on the topic.
This event is an excellent chance for everyone who wants to gain practical advice and insights on this topic from a variety of perspectives. The panel will feature speakers from venture capital, startups, and a Nordic-based consulting agency helping organisations kick-off and accelerate their diversity, equity & inclusion (DEI) journeys. Don’t miss out on this chance to learn from experts in the field and gain valuable insights into building businesses inclusively.
