Senior University Lecturer Dr. Ville Eloranta, who has been teaching in the IDBM programme since 2018, officially starts as the IDBM Programme Director on 1.9.2021.

With more than 15 years of industry experience and nearly 10 years of academic career, Ville is an expert in business model innovation (ecosystem-level and platform business models), leading multidisciplinary creativity, and connecting design paradigms to management practice.

Former Programme Director Dr. Niina Nurmi starts as a Assistant Professor in Dept. of Industrial Engineering and Management in Aalto School of Science. Niina will continue working very closely with IDBM and building even stronger connections between the School of Science and IDBM.

We wish them both the very best in their new roles!
