finnlabs international advisory board
/ Friday, September 04, 2009
The statement is dangerously close to a platitude from the management consultancy literature. Nevertheless, it holds true: finnlabs is constantly re-inventing itself. The business environment we are operating in has radically changed during the last years. The opportunities offered during the dot-com euphoria a decade ago were very different from the painful sobering up later on. The industry professionalized and today a very different set of abilities is expected from a company to thrive.
Ever since the infancy of our business, a network of experienced friends supported us in almost any dimension of our work. As visionaries, sharing their business ideas and discussing ours. As experts, providing insights into new technologies. As experienced managers, telling us how to run operations. As friends, whose advise is always an invaluable help.
Even in the 10th year of operations we have not reached a state of “business as usual”. Our customers’ needs and the technological possibilities evolve constantly. Swift adaptation is the key to serve our clients in the best way possible. Thinking ahead, developing visions, new products and possible scenarios is still as crucial as during the first days. We are therefore grateful for the continuous conversation with “our” network which is a constant source of innovation.
finnlabs is establishing a more formal Board of Advisors. Institutionalising the exchange of knowledge and ideas intensifies the links within the network even more. Additionally it gives us a chance to thank and credit our advisors publicly.
The first members of the advisory board are:
