LUT University’s business event LUT Blossom brings together influential figures in business, science, and policy-making. Its goal is to boost Finland's economy through collaboration in research and education.

LUT Blossom is Finland's largest university-led business growth event and will be held in Lahti in April. The event focuses on how universities and companies can change Finland's direction and help tackle global challenges.

“We’re connecting people and ideas. We're focusing on collaboration that delivers results and can make your organisation more sustainable,” says Petri Ajo, chief growth officer at LUT.

The event revolves around four topics of current interest with worldwide reach: the energy transition, the digital revolution, the regenerative use of natural resources, and business and society. Business leaders and superstars of science will take the stage and address these phenomena. In addition, the event will present concrete examples of university-industry collaboration.

“At Blossom, you can challenge your thinking, discover new perspectives on the renewal of business and society, and network with top experts,” Ajo sums up.
