Bio

I am a Thematic Expert on the platform. I create and implement knowledge exchange activities such as webinars, thematic discussions, peer reviews and good practice exchanges. I also co-author policy briefs. I am based in Estonia, Tartu and work for a consultancy called Baltic Innovation Agency. I am interested in developing local innovation ecosystems for entrepreneurial people to boost regional development. My recent focus has been on social entrepreneurship.
