To put it simply, we help people bring their academic skills into action. Often times this means entrepreneurship, but our mission runs deeper than that. We aim to help future change makers recognize their skills and passions and create something unique in the world, improving their lives and others’. We provide them with all the right tools: free coworking spaces, workshops, bootcamps, accelerator programs and tons of other events, mentoring and a community of like-minded individuals.

FAQ
Ok, bear with us. We’re called Helsinki Think Company, but we don’t do business in the traditional sense. We are a co-working space and a community. Our passion is to bring people together and make stuff happen here and now.
No. To create something multidisciplinary and truly new, you can’t draw too many lines. People are amazing no matter where they study or work.
Using the space for co-working and organizing event’s doesn’t cost you money. However, we expect you to bring something to the community in return. Say hi to people you don’t know, smile, be considerate. Don’t be afraid to draw on walls (the drawable ones), or move a table to a better place. Wash your own coffee cup and organize the space to it’s original condition after using it. Most importantly, bring in your enthusiasm and energy.
Some of our people are employees, some are volunteers. Our employees are the one taking care of the daily routines of the coworking spaces. They also carry the biggest responsibility for our programs, but we are nothing without our community’s efforts.
Helsinki Think Company is funded by the University of Helsinki and the city of Helsinki.
