Pori ES was happy to sponsor the excellent SuomiAreena panel “The Trust Deficit: Who Pays the Price When the Systems Fail?” by providing small gifts for the panelists.

The gifts showcased a bit of Pori’s local character, including products from Visit Pori and Porin Paahtimo — who kindly worked with us — as well as Santa's Break chocolate and Yyterin Sinappi.

It is always our desire to support our community. We’re grateful to all these great local businesses and hope to collaborate even more closely with them in the future! 🙌

🎤 Last week at , we had the chance to dive into an important topic.

Our Chairman, Violeta Ivanova, participated in the panel, "The Trust Deficit: Who Pays the Price When the Systems Fail?”, moderated by our very own Marketing and Communications person, Matt Bowen.

The discussion explored what happens when trust in public systems weakens and who ultimately carries the consequences. It was a thoughtful and timely conversation with great panelists and an engaged audience. The panel’s core message was that trust will not come back through slogans or technical fixes alone; it has to be rebuilt through better functioning services, real participation, and policies that make people feel seen and served.

Pori ES is proud to have been represented in this important dialogue! Huge thanks to International Professionals Finland - Interprofinland for organizing the panel and for inviting Pori ES to be part of the discussion.

Big thanks to the other panelists, Tiina-Maija Paloranta (Valo kierre), Mona Molin Elo (SAMK/NotesByMona), and Nick Walters (Sitra) for such a riveting conversation. 👏

🚀 Great success at Technology X Engineering 2026 yesterday in Pori!

It was fantastic to see so much energy, technical discussion, and genuine networking happening in our city. Our very own Lauri Tuumi (Teollisuuden Voima Oyj/Pori ES) delivered a strong keynote speech and actively represented Pori Entrepreneurship Society.

Events like this are exactly what Satakunta needs — real conversations between industry, technology experts, researchers, and future makers. Proud to have been part of it!

Big thanks to Porin Teknillinen Seura ry for organizing, Maria Vanhatalo for presenting, all the speakers, and everyone who participated. The level of questions and discussion showed how important these platforms are.
