Finland is impatiently waiting for a completely new kind of business event in December, when TWINKLE empowers Tampere Hall the 7th and 8th of December 2015.

During Twinkle, Finnish companies and international talents work together to innovate and co-create new visions, as well as open doors to international business opportunities. In addition, companies can benefit from internationalization tools and a pool of 2000 Finnish and international talents. Businesses can also take advantage of cultural diversity by embracing varied skills and experiences that can carry broader perceptions to address difficulties.

At the moment, Twinkle organizing committee is working hard to make the event possible. Gloria Zúñiga CEO of Decoark Oy and member of Twinkle Organizing Committee is discussing with interesting speakers to support the event. In addition of companies and international talents, embassies and Team Finland organizations network have been invited to boost business internationalization.

Twinkle gathers up internationally oriented skilled talents both Finnish and foreigners.

Twinkle is showing the region the power of international community” says Outi Lehtonen, the managing partner of Osuuskunta Paluun.

Already a number of the Tampere Region's companies are supporting Twinkle and the idea of internationalizing the expertise and business growth in the region.

“It’s been a great honor to participate in the conceptualization of this new mega-event and we spread the word in our network of entrepreneurs to join the project”, says Päivi Lehtonen, the marketing director of Markkinointitoimisto Expression Oy; one of the event sponsors.

Twinkle is organized and produced by a set of international volunteers living in the Tampere Region. The event is also coordinated by Tampere Region Economic Development Agency Tredea and the sponsors of the event make Twinkle a reality.

“Twinkle shows that Tampere does not remain helpless in the economic cycle, but look forward and take actions together”, says Marjukka Hourunranta, Talent manager of Tredea Oy.
