Growth begins before everything is ready

Minna Arve, CEO, Business Turku

Growth is not born of caution. It comes from the courage to seize opportunities when everything is not yet in place. Growth only happens when you take the first step forward.

Turku has always been a city of action and renewal. Today, this increasingly means bold business growth: new ideas, new teams and new companies building something sustainable and international. At Business Turku, we want to be involved from the very beginning. We want to help when the direction is still taking shape and the most important decisions are yet to be made.

That is why we launched Business Turku Startup Hub. It is designed for early‑stage startups looking for a community, sparring and a first home for growth in Turku. Startup Hub is not just a space—it is a place where entrepreneurs are not left on their own. Around them are other founders, mentors, and a concrete connection to the next steps of growth.

Bold growth does not mean going it alone. It means the right people, the right network and the right moment. Startup Hub acts as a gateway to the broader growth ecosystem of the Turku region and helps build the path from idea to scalable business.

If you are founding a company, growing a startup, or considering your next step forward: now is a good time to act. In the Turku region, there is a place, support and a partner for growth.

At Business Turku, we invite you to join bold growth.
