EXPERIENCE AND
KNOW-HOW
Since 1980,
I've been working within marketing communication as an marketing
director, marketing manager, PR, sponsorship and event marketing
consultant, entrepreneur and as a partner of a few
advertising, PR and event marketing agencies, and as a marketing
communication consultant for both commercial and non-profit
organizations and the media.
In 1999-2000 I
worked in the leading group of Modern Times Group Ltd. as the
marketing director. My sphere of responsibilities consisted of
launching and marketing Metro (daily) in Finland (metropolitan
area), internal marketing, launching of the loyalty club of
Metro, Club Metro and international contacts.
WELL
CONNECTED
I'm very well
connected. I've worked together with an amount of commercial and
uncommercial organizations in various business and Cultural
areas. The Finnish media people in TV, radio and the press are
not unfamiliar to me. I've been co-operating with many
associations and federations, with athletes, artists, writers,
graphic designers, philosophers, teachers, lecturers,
futurologists, and with professionals in many other areas.
I have thousands of professional contacts who are
connected with millions of other professionals and decision
makers globally. I belong to and

CONNECTING
THE UNCONNECTED
For now I work
as an entrepreneur, as a marketing integrator and communication
coordinator. I'm a marketing communication consultant running a virtual
organisation hunting after factual connections, synergies,
networks, partners and naturally new interesting clients, operations and
projects within marketing communication and project management in Finland, but globally
as well.
CHARASTERISTICS AND PERSONALITY
I'd like to
characterise my way of thinking as lateral and very open minded,
my way of action effective and my circle of contacts as
exceptionally wide. The keywords of my activities are factual
connections, creativity, interactivity, cost-effectivity,
multiplicative effects and added-value. My slogan is Connects
the Unconnected, and motto: Think the Unthinkable and Move the
Immovable.
