Understanding the Market and Market Disruption

Anyone willing to follow in the footsteps of Finland’s best entrepreneurs and founders — let alone the world — has some big shoes to fill.

We bring you Marianne Vikkula, COO of Wolt, Chair of Slush and Board Member at Marimekko, and Moaffak Ahmed, founder of Cooler Future and Partner at Nordic Makers. These two champions of entrepreneurship will be interviewed by Eerika Savolainen, former COO and CEO of Slush, and share what it’s like to be in their shoes, along with their best practices for understanding market and market disruption.

Bigger Shoes is an event series that brings the biggest and boldest entrepreneurs in Finland and neighboring countries to you so you can learn from their successes and failures. Get ready for inspiring talks and fireside chats, challenging questions, and tasty bites, and don’t hurry home afterward — if you stick around for some networking, you might just meet your future co-founder.

In need of some ECTS? By attending all nine sessions of Bigger Shoes, you can earn one credit. More information at avp.aalto.fi/bigger-shoes.
