    Hi, I'm a Master's student at Aalto University, specialising in finance. I'm interested in start-ups, particularly those in the energy sector.

    I’m interested in defence because the sector growing and needed but still mysterious as an career opportunity. Furthermore, Aalto needs an association that can bring connect students with prospective employers in the industry.

  • Fanni Tilanto

    Events Coordinator

    I’m Fanni, a second-year master’s student in International Design Business Management at Aalto University, and I did my bachelor’s in Marketing.

    My interest in defence started during my military service in Finland, which boosted my strong appreciation for national safety and the people working to protect it. I think the defence industry could be an exciting career path, and I want to encourage more women to see it as something for them too.

  • Sammy Rohner

    Marketing

    I am a Msc Student in Economics at Aalto. Prior to my studies, I served for a few years in the Swiss Armed Forces as a Soldier, Seargent, Leutnant and Company Commander.

    A strong army requires a strong defence industry to supply, develop and support the armed forces. Hence, by connecting the vast amount of talent present at Aalto with the Finnish Defence Industry I feel like an important contribution to the security of Finland can be made.
