Role of Finnish Universities in a Globalising Economy

"Globalisation is crucial to Finland, especially in its economic development. As a small country in the north of Europe, Finland’s economy is highly dependent on international trade and the international markets, according to the Prime Minister’s Office," writes Yuzhuo Cai for Helsinki Times. "Unlike other countries, Finland relies on its higher education to attract global talent, whereas the Anglo-Saxon countries tend to enhance globalisation by absorbing foreign workforce to participate in their economic development in addition to the role played by their higher education."
