Why this role, now The role of the board in steering company strategy and growth keeps growing in importance. At the same time, the need for international perspective, diversity, and developing expertise is rising. Board collaboration among Nordic companies is becoming an ever more central strategic factor. The future of Finnish and Nordic companies will be built on increasingly strong boards.
