All our events and hangouts are always open for everyone and held in English, so don’t hesitate to sign up and check them out!
What we value?
01. Learn by doing
Put entrepreneurial skills into practice and experience the process of solving a problem and creating something. Whether it is an event or a project under ES or a startup, we believe the best way to learn is hands-on.
02. Maximise learning
Seeking opportunities that allow you to maximise learning can lead to a more fulfilling and successful life, both personally and professionally. By constantly seeking new knowledge and skills, you can expand your abilities, grow as a person, and achieve your goals. Surround yourself with others who strive for growth to accelerate the process and become better together.
03. Crazy ambition
In North Savo ES there’s no such thing as too big dreams nor too ambitious goals. We encourage you to think big and have real impact in the world.
04. Giving forward
We want to foster a culture of giving forward, sharing our knowledge and helping each other out. Creating a positive cycle of generosity and kindness benefits everyone and leads to stronger and more supportive community.
05. Diversity
A diverse and multidisciplinary community brings together individuals with different skills and areas of expertise. This leads to more creative problem-solving, wider range of perspectives and ideas, and the whole community broadening their knowledge.
06. Approchability
Our events are always open for everyone! We value everyone feeling welcome and having sense of belonging to the community, no matter wether you come to an event for the first time or have been part of the community for awhile. The bigger the community the broader range of perspectives and greater impact we have.

What does entrepreneurial mindset mean?
An entrepreneurial mindset is a set of skills that allow individuals to identify opportunities, overcome challenges, and succeed in various settings. It involves recognizing problems as opportunities for growth and innovation, being willing to take risks, being self-reliant, and having a forward-thinking attitude. These skills can be learned and developed, and they are beneficial in all areas of life.
Wait, what even is a startup?
A startup is a young company with the aim to develop a unique product or service as a solution to an existing problem, and the objective is to develop and validate a scalable business model with the potential to grow exponentially. Typically at some point startup’s goal is to exit, whether through acquisition by another company or through becoming a publicly listed company.
