Entering the US market: Wisconsin 18.9.

More information

Come enjoy a cup of coffee and some breakfast while listening to Stefan Peikert’s market info concerning the US market!

 

Wisconsin shares many similarities with Finland in climate, geography, and industry. Key sectors include Mobile Machines, Tech & AI, Paper & Tissue, maritime, and Food & Beverage. Finnish companies like VALMET and PONSSE, along with Nordic and European businesses such as Essity and Haribo, are present in Wisconsin.

 

Tampere and Milwaukee are particularly well-matched. Both regions excel in automation, health and AI, with significant industry players like SANDVIK in Tampere and KOMATSU Mining in Milwaukee. Milwaukee is also a hub for healthcare data and payment solutions, with major companies like EPIC and FiServ. The city is an 80-minute drive from Chicago O’Hare, similar to Tampere’s proximity to Helsinki Airport.

 

Stefan Peikert, Director Europe for the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation, will join us for a Business Meet-Up to discuss entering the U.S. market and localizing in the Midwest. With nearly three decades of experience, Stefan will help us leverage the synergies between Tampere/Finland and Milwaukee/Wisconsin.
