Magsort CEO Kalevi Kostiainen:
“We are extremely happy to have Linda onboard. She’s joining us at an important stage, as we are moving from a successful commercialization into a scaling phase. Her experience and insights are going to be essential in achieving our growth goals.”
“I’m very curious as a person and I always want to understand how things really work. I’ve never been afraid to ask as many questions as needed before it becomes clear to me. I think it’s vital that everyone understands the economic impact of alternative events and decisions in both the short and long term.
As a CFO, I hope to provide that clear view of the future. It’s also where my core skills lie – in financial modelling and forecasting.”
“I’m a finance professional with both start-up and corporate experience. Over the past 20 years I’ve gained diverse experience from business control and financial management in manufacturing industries to audit and M&A.”
“I love the outdoors – climbing and backcountry-skiing – ski touring more specifically. I particularly enjoy the views up on snow-capped mountains. It’s a certain kind of privilege moving on untouched snow in fresh air. There’s no ski lift – you have to climb there on your own, which makes it so much more rewarding.”
