New podcast: Puttonen & Vilkkumaa
The School of Business has started a new podcast Puttonen & Vilkkumaa that executes the School鈥檚 motto 鈥淏etter Business 鈥 Better Society鈥 by discussing actual topics in the area of business and society.
Professor of Finance Vesa Puttonen and Assistant Professor of Information and Service Management Eeva Vilkkumaa host the podcast and in each episode, one of the School鈥檚 researchers discusses an actual business topic with a guest coming from outside the university world.
Finnish was chosen as the language of the podcast as there is currently a limited supply of Finnish podcasts that talk about business from the point of view of research.
The Puttonen & Vilkkumaa podcast can be accessed through Spotify and iTunes as well as through the aalto.fi website. The podcast is produced in co-operation with Jaksomedia.
