Prior to FiBAN, Milja worked as a freelance writer, Interim CMO, and co-founder and CMO.
She has worked in marketing and communications for various business sectors, including startups, film, and the pharmaceutical industry. She is familiar with the Finnish startup scene through having co-founded a startup and other projects in the Finnish startup ecosystem.
She graduated with Media Studies from Turku University and did her master’s thesis on the significance of PR in crowdfunding film, using Iron Sky as a case study (in Finnish), and has helped crowdfunding campaigns from culture industries raise over 700 000 euros.
Milja is also actively involved in local impact networks and communities, and she holds a special place in her heart for impact startups and founders who are building a better world through entrepreneurship and the creative economy.
In her free time, she is a singer-songwriter, an outdoorsy nature person, a film enthusiast, and a curious tester of new emerging technologies.
