By combining our excellence in tech and sustainable thinking with some added courage and ambition, we are able to unlock the huge global potential and be real SUPERFINNS together, says Mika Kukkurainen, Partner and Founder of Nordic Foodtech VC.

Nordic FoodTech VC and other partner’s are committed to providing the companies with the best recipes for international success. Vesa Riihimäki, Head of Nordea Startup & Growth, says that the SUPERFINNS program is a unique opportunity for the growth companies. 

– Meetings with financiers and investors always open a new door to start building confidential relationships and cooperation. This year we have even wider investment scope covered, which means better fit and value for participating companies, says Riihimäki.
