Meeting the Minister


Last week Alexander Stubb the Finish Foreign Minister came to Shanghai for a 2 day visit. He held a speech about Europe's future and how Finland will develop. He also made a comment how to promote Finland and the slogan was "Finland, cooler than you think". Was a really good speech and I have to say we have an awesome Foreign Minister.
The event was hosted in one of Shanghais oldest and most exclusive hotels The Peace Hotel. Food and company was good and I also talked a while to founder and CEO of Rovio, the guy who is behind Angry Birds - Peter Vesterbacka. Really awesome guy with visions. He also said that "This was just a start, serious business will come in the future! Let's all hope so, Rovio is kinda like Finland's "New Nokia" who everyone knows about. At the moment Rovio is also the most pirate copied brand in the world and has over 400 million downloads to different mobile devices. Way to go!
