Ideas To Action. Stories to Screen.
"NO ONE CAN CHANGE EVERYTHING, BUT EVERYONE CAN CHANGE SOMETHING"
Hey You, Welcome.
I am a Finnish entrepreneur and audiovisual executive who loves powerful stories and purpose-driven business.
Stories to screen and ideas into action.
My background is in media, especially in television and audiovisual storytelling. I am a co-founder of Aito Media, one of the biggest Finnish production companies, which I have run for 20 years as a CEO. Now, I am focusing my audiovisual work to international drama and documentaries. Currently I work through ICS Nordic.
I have created and produced more than 1700 hours of programming. In 2022 example of production is Lakeside Murders, a Nordic Noir series sold to Australia, US and Canada.
In addition to meaningful stories, I am involved in businesses that make the world a better place. I am a founder of WEGAN, a company that will bring tasty vegan food to the masses. In addition, I am a partner and chairman in Sitomo, a company that brings psychological safety to workplaces. I am also a podcaster and writer. Today, I am writing a book, IDEACTION: how to put your ideas into action. That will be published in 2022. Visit my blog, and you will now more.
