The hightech entrepreneurship movement Slush already exerts significant impact in Finland and beyond. And yes, it’s a movement, not just an event: in less than a decade, Helsinki attendance has gone from 300 to 16,000.
Newcomers continue to expand the ongoing trend of artisanal beers and spirits in exciting directions in the northern Finnish cities of Oulu and Tornio and beyond.
A country with no ocean or real waves surfs to the top of wave power technologies.
