With the global economy undergoing a rapid transformation, three megatrends shape businesses’ investment decisions: technology, sustainability, and geopolitics. Secure supply of green energy, creative incentives programs and access to talent are also rising up the agenda when companies choose where to invest.
Where does that leave Finland? Join us to explore Finland’s strategic standing and how we can continue to compete for global investments and generate much-needed economic growth.
You are invited for the morning of Friday 6th September for Amcham Finland’s annual Foreign Direct Investment Forum. This forum brings together forward-looking industry leaders, public sector decision-makers and key stakeholders to discuss the evolving priorities of global business and how Finland‘s leadership in sustainability and digital technologies can secure its future as an attractive investment location.
