WORKING

in Lappeenranta

In an entrepreneur-friendly city that is a pioneer in renewable energy, work gives meaning to life, but this alone is not enough. In Lappeenranta, a good quality and balance of life are important success factors.

UNHURRIED LIFE

in a spirit of appreciation for entrepreneurship and solutions

In Lappeenranta, we value entrepreneurship and develop the business, incubator and accelerator services as well as solutions for plots and business premises needed by companies, improving them in a customer-oriented manner. The work can be done flexibly from suitable offices or coworking spaces. Groups of colleagues and friends also enjoy the recreational opportunities and activities offered by the city.

In Lappeenranta, people work and live in a modern, pedestrian-oriented city with room for nature, services and people. They are never too busy to stop for a brief chat. Caring and communality are Karelian values that can be seen in working life and beyond. In Lappeenranta, people focus on solutions rather than problems, and this approach is reflected in all areas of life.
