VentureVillage Featured in Kauppalehti: Showcasing the Finland–India Education Bridge
https://www.kauppalehti.fi/uutiset/a/fb892e13-2067-4dcb-ba2b-50ff3dd206a3
We are proud to share that VentureVillage has been featured in Kauppalehti, Finland’s leading business daily. This recognition reflects not just our work, but the shared vision we have with our partners to connect two vibrant worlds: Finland and India.
As immigrant entrepreneurs, we have experienced first-hand how Finnish education and entrepreneurial culture can inspire young minds. With our Finland International Future Bootcamp, we bring high school students from India and the Middle East to immerse themselves in Finland’s classrooms, innovation hubs, startup culture, and way of life.
For many of these students, it’s their first time experiencing uniquely Finnish traditions — from sauna and meeting Santa Claus, to tasting Fazer chocolates. But more importantly, it’s their first opportunity to develop and pitch their own business ideas to startup mentors from the University of Helsinki Incubatorand other industry experts. This is where future entrepreneurs are nurtured.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to Anup Jinadevan, Praveen Parameshwar, and Rahul Easwar of Lifology for their pioneering vision and for partnering with us in promoting Finnish education on a global stage. Together, we are building a model where Finland is not only known as the happiest country in the world, but also as a destination for the best talent from India.
This is just the beginning. We believe Finland needs the best from India — and we are committed to bringing them here to learn, innovate, and build the future.
