Helsinki Opens Annual Entrepreneurial Growth Scheme for Third Year
The successful 90-Day Finn programme from Helsinki is back for the third year running, filled with even more ambition and activity than ever before. The scheme gives participants the chance to plunge into one of the world’s most innovative and thriving business ecosystems.
The programme’s mission is to help participants reach their business goals over the three-month period, all while falling in love with Helsinki’s unique lifestyle. The success of 90 Day Finn speaks for itself, with 20% of alumni still living in the city today. A number that is about to grow as more of the previous 90 Day Finns are in the process of applying for residence permits with support from Helsinki Partners. Perhaps down to Helsinki’s unique culture, which has led to the city being recognised as one of the top places in the world for work-life balance.
In practice, it means you can build a successful career and still have enough time and energy for a flourishing personal life. Picture cold water swimming, saunas, and skiing; all possible in your daily life. 90 Day Finn is the perfect opportunity to understand and embrace the Finnish culture, live life sustainably, and advance as a professional abroad.
Applications for the programme, which offers a 90 Day relocation package to people from across the globe, are open from the 24th of January 2023 until the 24th of February. The programme is searching for 15 driven founders, investors and business professionals who are looking for expansion opportunities or a new investment challenge, as well as inspirational change-makers that want to see real change in the immediate future.
“Helsinki is home to some of the most innovative businesses in the world. Freedom for trial and error is part of what makes Helsinki so unique. Importantly, no one is scared of failure, success comes from learning what works and what doesn’t. As part of the programme, participants will be given a vibrant workspace in the city centre and introduced to relevant business networks and hubs.” Said Clarisse Berggårdh, CEO Helsinki Partners.
