I am grateful all the efforts and results in 2025 and warmest thanks to all the staff!

It has been a pleasure to see successful results in 2025 and so much new activities and new personnel. Our operations have grown strongly, and we have gained many new colleagues. Both in Kajaani and Vuokatti!

I believe and I know that the next year, our work will continue successfully and at this point it is good to also bring the praise of the regional director to the Kajaani university consortium. Riikka Pirkkalainen praised the activities of the Kajaani University Consortium to important for the entire region and that our results are excellent.

It is good to continue this in 2026 to solve new and raising challenges for Kainuu and also the whole of Finland.

I wish you all a very nice Christmas and let's all try to calm down and enjoy the Holidays, at least for a short time, and let`s continue the great work in 2026.

PS: Please share to this also all to whole Vuokatti staff PS: I will work still in Monday and then next time in office 2.1.2026. In urgent matters please contact me in mobile. PS: Some chocolate available in coffee room in Kajaani
