Episode 1 : Pamela Spokes on immigrant entrepreneurship in Finland

Finland: Through the looking glass

Canadian-born service design entrepreneur Pamela Spokes is our guest on the first episode of Finland: Through the looking glass. A resident of Finland since 2007, she shares insights she's learned from her entrepreneurial journey and ponders a few of the big questions facing Finland: skilled immigration and what Finland could look like in the future, unemployment among the foreign-background community and English as a gateway language to a career in Finland. “It’s better to do the right thing wrong than to do the wrong thing right,” she says of designing services aimed at attracting foreign talent.
