This week Helsinki is the focal point for the global startup community. Slush, the leading Nordic startup event, brings more than 1700 startups and 15.000 attendees together in Helsinki.

During the month of September we officially launched our international operations, not only by gaining some of our first international customers, but also by starting to recruit international talent. With this in mind we will start publishing blogs, both in English and Swedish, which will be steered towards our future international customers and employees. This first one will discuss why it's ideal to join the Vainu-journey right now.

The long wait has come to an end. For me and Mikko, I would say the wait has been there for years - to start a company of our own. Now it has finally come to something concrete - and can't wait to get it all started. It has been a dream for a decade and the biggest mistake would be not to fail in this but not to take this chance.
