🚘 Every year, Jyväskylä hosts the largest annual public event in the Nordics. During the FIA World Rally Championship, hundreds of thousands of fans, teams, media representatives, partners, and visitors gather in the city, creating a truly unique international atmosphere. Last year alone, the event attracted more than 260,000 visitors across its venues!

This world-class event also provides the perfect stage for innovation. 💫

Yesterday, our colleagues Mari Suoranta and Christa Könönen from JSBE Strategy & Entrepreneurship Group (STRENT) were part of the organizing team behind Rally Pitch, a startup event that brings startups and investors together in a way you won’t find anywhere else. Imagine pitching your startup while sitting in a rally car driven by four-time World Rally Champion Tommi Mäkinen. How cool is that?

The format is as exciting as it sounds, combining speed, entrepreneurship, and networking. This year’s Rally Pitch welcomed 100+ participants from 15 countries, once again demonstrating how world-class sporting events can also become powerful platforms for innovation, international collaboration, and new business opportunities.

Congratulations to the entire Rally Pitch team for delivering such a unique and inspiring event!

The Innovative Marketing course, lectured by Mari Suoranta, concluded with an inspiring final seminar where student teams presented their solutions for real business case challenges.

One of the featured cases was for the startup Green Carbon, with two student teams presenting marketing ideas and strategic recommendations for the company. It was great to have Green Carbon CEO Matti Toivonen join us as a panelist for the presentations.

After the session, Matti shared that he was positively surprised by both the quality of the work and how well the teams had understood the assignments and identified the right focus areas. The presentations also sparked several concrete ideas and thoughts on how Green Carbon can move forward with its marketing efforts, and many of the insights will likely be utilized in their future marketing work. Thank you, Matti Toivonen, for joining the course and sharing your valuable feedback with our students! We also thank other guest speakers of the course. IBE alumnus, Marketing Project Manager Karim Elbanna of Neural DSP and Dr. Heini Vanninen of LUT University - Your insights on digital marketing and influencer marketing were highly appreciated!

🔆 The highlight of March for IBE Director Mari Suoranta was a visit to Lund University in Sweden. 🔆

Mari was invited there by a friend and earlier colleague from UC Berkeley Professor Charlotta Johnsson, founder of LU X-Lab makers space among other things. Mari visited several incubators such as HETCH, Ideon, E-commerce Park, LU Venture Lab. Learned about Helsingborg Innovation district development and talked with the LU Innovation director on research commercialization. She got Insights on LU entrepreneurship education from the master's degree program director and on ecosystem research from the founder of their SJK Entrepreneurship Center. All in all, such productive and insightful days with lots of laughter.

We welcomed researchers to BOOST2, co-hosted by Daria Hakola and Mari Suoranta at the University of Jyväskylä. Officially opened by Vice-Rector Pasi Raiskinmäki and co-branded with European Council for Small Business and Entrepreneurship (ECSB)) — and what a workshop it turned out to be! 🌟

🎖️ A huge, heartfelt thank you to the brilliant keynote speakers, Christina Theodoraki and Kim Klyver, for thought-provoking talks that sparked some of the liveliest discussions of the two days! A big thank you to Matti Muhos for the newest GEM 2026 insights!

👏 The Meet the Editors sessions were truly a highlight thanks to Ewald Kibler, Kim Klyver, Christina Theodoraki, Ulla Hytti, and Matti Muhos.

💯The roundtable feedback sessions were equally special, with Bjorn-Tore Flaten, Prince Baah-Peprah, Pekka Stenholm, Ulla Hytti, Tanja Leppäaho, Matti Muhos, Ewald Kibler, Christina Theodoraki, and Kim Klyver giving so generously of their time and expertise. Exactly the kind of collegial spirit BOOST is all about.

🤝And what a joy it was to welcome Vilja Laaksonen from Aava & Bang Oy and Dr. Kari Aho from Secapp - two research-friendly growth-oriented companies to join us for our business-academia collaboration discussion on the second afternoon. That conversation reminded us all why bridging these two worlds matters so much.

💟 BOOST 2 was everything we hoped it would be — warm, stimulating, and full of the kind of connections that move research forward.
