Co-Founder CEO Janne Heikkinen:
” Heikki was coaching SpinDrive under the H2020 SME instrument as SpinDrive was awarded H2020 SME Phase I grant. The coaching material was well prepared and the coaching itself was fruitful as Heikki was rising questions and left some room for discussion for the team itself. Obviously, Heikki has an extensive professional career from various industries and he was able to understand the key challenges of our business, but also recommend some fresh ideas how to approach these challenges. It is my pleasure to recommend Heikki as a business consultant especially for companies who are targeting international sales.”
