Alumna, Doctoral Programme in Entrepreneurship
Aalto is a very strong research institution, and that sets high expectations. But you should not think that if you do not publish like a senior professor right after your PhD, you have no future in academia. That is not the case. There are many different kinds of academic environments, and it is about finding the one that fits you.

One of my favourite memories is the Aalto Startup Circus at Startup Sauna. The first time I pitched there was with The Shortcut, and later I went back with an early idea for FloweRescue. It was such a fun event, and it showed me the creative and playful side of entrepreneurship. Sometimes people focus only on the serious business side, which isalso important, but that event reminded me that entrepreneurship is also about creativity and community.

I found the student culture in Finland to be quite special. I really enjoyed the first-week activities, and the unique culture of wearing student overalls at certain events as well as collecting different patches during events throughout the year. This experience made it very easy to meet people outside of class.
