Our community now has 50,000 alumni – let’s celebrate this milestone together in September!

We invite our alumni, students close to graduation, representatives of partner organisations and our staff to our event-filled programme at the Pasila campus and to come and explore the new RestoCamp facilities for hospitality management at Tripla.

The programme will feature several inspiring keynote speeches, opportunities to build invaluable connections with members of our community through the Brella networking platform, open houses at StartUp School and Taseco as well as at the creative agency Krea, a wide range of interesting sessions across six parallel tracks, and stands showcasing our activities.

Highlights of the programme

The programme includes opening remarks by Rector Susanna Niinistö-Sivuranta, an insightful talk on the neurochemistry of networking by author, coach and headhunter Timo Hilvo, a look at future technologies by Jukka Vahti, Leading Specialist in Sitra’s foresight team, a talk on psychological safety by CEO Katja Toropainen, and insights into his coaching philosophy from Jarmo Härmä, head coach of a Finnish championship-winning floorball team.
