Twice a year, Aalto University is celebrating its new tenured professors with popular talks by our new Associate & Full level tenure track professors.

The so called Installation Talks are held in English and they are open for everyone: professors, students, faculty, staff, and the public. The multidisciplinary talks will be followed by a reception. You are welcome to watch the on Aalto University YouTube channel as well. The invitation to the event is published on aalto.fi a few weeks before 'the showtime'.

In the short videos, recordings of the event, new professors of the School of Business enlighten us with personal insights and tell why they are passionate about their field. 

The following professors have given the talk in some of the past events in 2020–2025 (videos in a random order). Hope you find them interesting!
