Bigger Shoes — Evaluating startup ideas with Kristo Ovaska and Maija Itkonen
Anyone willing to follow in the footsteps of Finland’s best entrepreneurs and founders — let alone the world — has some big shoes to fill.
We bring you Kristo Ovaska, Founder of Aaltoes and Smartly.io, and Maija Itkonen, Co-founder of Powerkiss, Gold & Green, and Onego Bio. These two successful founders will be interviewed by Eerika Savolainen, former COO and CEO of Slush, and share what it’s like to be in their shoes and their best practices for evaluating startup ideas.
Bigger Shoes is an event series that brings the biggest and boldest entrepreneurs in Finland and neighboring countries to you so you can learn from their successes and failures. Get ready for inspiring talks and fireside chats, challenging questions, and tasty bites, and don’t hurry home afterward — if you stick around for some networking, you might just meet your future co-founder.
In need of some ECTS? By attending all nine sessions of Bigger Shoes, you can earn one credit. More information will be available later at the first event and at avp.aalto.fi/bigger-shoes.
