Physical event

Welcome to Amcham! Amcham Finland is the voice of the international and transatlantic business community in Finland. We bring together some 200 companies of all sizes and sectors to strengthen Finland’s competitiveness, foster innovation, and promote sustainable partnerships. Our mission is to unite businesses, promote public–private sector collaboration, and contribute to Finland’s economic prosperity and shared success across the Atlantic. 

This event will give participants an inside look at Amcham’s work: from attracting and retaining foreign direct investment (FDI) to shaping Finland’s business environment through policy advocacy. We will explore how global and U.S. economic trends affect Finnish companies, and how Finland can position itself for long-term growth in an increasingly competitive world.
