Inspiration for Two Tour This Week in Finnish Schools

Nordic Business Forum Oy holds Inspiration for Two theme days this week in upper comprehensive schools, upper secondary schools and vocational schools around Finland. The event is part of Nordic Business Forum’s nationwide voluntary tour, which aims to reach over 5300 youngsters and promote tolerance and intrapreneurial mindset.

Nordic Business Forum Oy has made a commitment to voluntary service in entrepreneurship education, which means that the company provides a day of entrepreneurship education to a Finnish schoolchild for every seminar or training ticket sold. The school visits are done on a 100 % voluntary basis and it is not subsidized by the government. The days consist mainly of stories and experiences of the young team of entrepreneurs working at Nordic Business Forum Oy. On each school visit there is always one or more NBForum team members and also one successful and inspiring person visitor on each school visit.

This week the visiting speakers are speed skater Mika Poutala, former ski jumper and Olympic medalist Toni Nieminen, Finnish female artist of the year 2013 SANNI and a media person, entrepreneur and former model Anne Kukkohovi. The tour is held in schools around Kuusamo, Kokkola, Seinäjoki, Turku, Jyväskylä, Lohja, Raisio, Loimaa and Saarijärvi.
