Lecture
In this first episode of AVANTO, a podcast on Finland’s global competitiveness, Geoffroy Van Humbeeck speaks with Pauli Heikkilä, former CEO of Finnvera — Finland’s national promotional bank and export credit agency.
Drawing on more than two decades at the heart of Finland’s innovation and financing ecosystem, Heikkilä reflects on the structural and cultural factors that shape how Finnish companies grow — and why strong technical excellence has not always translated into global influence.
The conversation explores:
Why engineering strength alone is not enough for Finnish companies to scaleThe persistent undervaluation of sales and marketing in FinlandHow historical attitudes toward risk still influence Finnish business cultureWhy Finland needs more €100 million and €1 billion companiesAnd what must change if Finland wants to shape global markets, not just participate in themAVANTO is a long-form conversation series examining ambition, capital and global competitiveness in Finland.

Description

AVANTO is a long-form podcast on Finland’s ambition and global competitiveness.
Through structured conversations with founders, investors and institutional leaders, the podcast explores how a small advanced economy builds globally competitive companies and where structural, cultural or strategic bottlenecks may persist.
Finland is known for technical excellence, trusted institutions and innovation. Yet these strengths have not always translated into visible global influence.
The podcast contributes to a more rigorous discussion about growth, commercialization and long-term economic impact.
