Heli Helanummi-Cole

I have been working as a university lecturer in the business management study program since autumn 2024. At Tampere, my teaching focus is on the fundamentals of management and business strategy.

My research examines organization of digitalization, entrepreneurship, and entrepreneurial ecosystems. I have also taught courses related to these themes in my previous positions as a postdoctoral researcher at Aalto University, as a university lecturer in entrepreneurship at the University of Southampton, and as a researcher at the University of Oxford in the United Kingdom. Before my doctoral studies at the University of Oxford, I held expert and leadership positions in the technology industry in Finland, Japan, and the United Kingdom.

In the academic year 2025–2026, I am the responsible lecturer for the following international courses
