Aalto Entrepreneurship Society (AaltoES) is the fastest growing and most active multidisciplinary, student-run entrepreneurship society in Europe.

Our aim is to help startups from Aalto University to find ideas, team members, finance, and create networks and skill sets. This way they are able to succeed in their entrepreneurial ventures.

AaltoES was founded in January 2009 to bring to together the entrepreneurial ecosystem of new Aalto University (http://aalto.fi) which combines the best design, business, and engineering universities in Finland:

* Helsinki School of Economics
HSE | http://www.hse.fi/en

* Helsinki University of Technology

AaltoES organizes events and trainings for like-minded students and alumni to meet each other and learn skills needed to get started with a new business. AaltoES is also the first official student-run society combing students of new Aalto University.

We believe in: Light structures, social entrepreneurship, personal networks, teams, growth entrepreneurship, serial entrepreneurs, Finnish technology, scalability, and born global attitude.

AaltoES operates from Design Factory, which is one of the innovative hot spots in the world according to Harvard Business Review (http://hbr.harvardbusiness.org/2009/03/tapping-the-worlds-innovation-hot-spots/es).
