We are looking forward to welcoming you to Jyväskylä for the 11th European Conference on Innovation and Entrepreneurship. Finland is globally recognised for its outstanding educational system and for many years our education and our teaching in particular has received worldwide acclaim. Interestingly, a small town in the center of Finland, called Jyväskylä can be regarded as the birthplace of the high quality Finnish teacher education. Even today JAMK Teacher College and the University of Jyväskylä are the most popular institutions for those who want to become teachers. Moreover, promoting entrepreneurship has gained a strong position in Finnish education.
