15.05.2014
The works of future leaders, designers, engineers, and traders are to be displayed in Helsinki from 16 May to 1 June 2014 at the Aalto University Masters of Aalto exhibition.
The Masters of Aalto exhibition represents a cross-section of the projects conducted in various fields at Aalto University; including technology, business and the economy, and the arts. More than 60 students’ theses and projects will be on display. The interdisciplinary dialogue between the works demonstrates the fundamentally diverse nature of the academic community at Aalto University.
Aalto University School of Business is widely represented at the exhibition. In her work, Eevamari Lehtinen looked at how the managers of the Finnish mining company Talvivaara could best utilise communication skills in crisis situations.
Jenni Hakkarainen researched how companies best adopt Social Business. Julius Valjakka studied how fanatism happens in football. Many other business related works are also shown at the exhibition.
Aalto University's students and alumni play an important part in coming up with the whole Masters of Aalto package. They have an influence on, among other things, the architectural design and visual look of the show, as well as its website.
Masters of Aalto 16 May − 1 June 2014, Eteläesplanadi 22, Helsinki. The exhibition is open from 11 am to 7 pm Monday to Friday and 12 pm to 5 pm on weekends. Entry is free-of-charge.
