Mikko Hyppönen
Chief Research Officer, Sensofusion
In late 2024, there was barely any events, or gatherings related to IT careers in the Turku region, Finland. The ongoing AI hype and increasing unemployment rate wasn't making it better. All the other fairs lacked both IT talent, and companies hiring them, not to even mention about dead marketing, dry atmosphere, and the feeling of hopelessness. Why?
Joonas Korgan
Founder & CEO, Identio
Founder of Root Expo, Marius realized that change would only happen through action. He also understood he couldn't do it alone. It began as a short pitch deck. As he walked out that night, Jesse's last words were: 'Keep it up, Marius.'
