Welcome to our blog on Innovation Management. This blog is related to Knowledge Management 2014 course of Tampere University of Technology and is established and maintained by Riikka, Teija, Lukas and Eero. We wish you inspiring moments with this blog.
Riikka
I am a first year student at TUT. I live in Eurajoki with my husband and our 2-year old boy. I love challenges and I am a keen long distance runner. I have a background in various sectors of business and work roles. I’ve got a master’s degree in economics in 2013 and since then I’ve been working in education and science, in sales and after sales functions in a start-up company and recently in HR consulting and sales. My future profession will be an entrepreneur: here at TUT to gain some substance knowledge to commercialize and to find possible business partners. On this blog I’ll concentrate on Open Innovation.
Teija
I started my studies at TUT in 2011. I study alongside working and studying is a long-term aim for me. My family consists of me, my husband, our 11-year old son and 7-year old daughter. I work as a planning engineer in a company which fabricates metal structures for offshore fields. The work is project type and my duties are to create, maintain and follow up engineering/ procurement/ fabrication schedules. My subject on this blog is Innovation Management.
Lukas
Hello, my name is Lukas and I’m 23 years old. I’m an exchange student from the Czech Republic. I have been studying on the TUT university for two weeks. At my home university I study technology management in my final year. I have worked in an engineering company for several summers as a mechanical engineer, however now I focus on assembling and repairing computers. In winter I spend a lot of time on mountains, since I work as a ski instructor. On this blog I will focus on the topic of Innovation Space 4Ps.
