This is Esa:
I am a 44-year-old expert in international co-operation and a keen promoter and representative of Tampere’s expertise and cooperation culture with 19 years’ experience of leadership and a truly extensive network in the City of Tampere, Tampere Region, nationally and internationally. I hold a master’s degree and my specialization is in International Relations. I have been the Director of the Baltic Institute of Finland for some considerable time and have been involved in a wide range of measures for the development of Tampere and active in the development of Tampere’s networks, local, national and international – from business development to culture and from education to eGovernment. With such a background my knowledge of decision-making and local developer networks in Tampere is exceptionally strong. I am also experienced in presenting Tampere and its expertise in various international forums. I stand for the internationalization of Tampere and for the European spirit in my role as chairman of the Tampere branch of the European Movement in Finland.
