We’re excited to launch the FACC NY Women’s Leadership Roundtable & Mentoring Program, a new 2026 initiative supporting Finnish professional women in the New York TriState area. This program is designed to create space for connection, conversation, and growth — whether you’re building your career, growing as a leader, or exploring entrepreneurship. Through roundtable discussions, community-building, and mentorship, we bring women together to learn from one another and move forward together.
Women’s Leadership Roundtable
A quarterly gathering for conversation, learning, and connection.
Each roundtable brings together Finnish, Nordic, and Baltic professionals for interactive discussions and workshops — shaped by the participants themselves. Topics may include leadership, entrepreneurship, funding and finance, future skills and AI, innovation, and work–life balance.
Launch Event on the 9th of March
Join us as we mark the official launch of the Roundtable in connection with International
Women’s Day. We are honored to welcome Kristiina Helenius, C.E.O. of Miltton USA and bestselling author, as our inaugural speaker. With over 30 years of leadership experience spanning business, diplomacy, and media across Europe, Asia, and the United States, Kristiina is a widely recognized thought leader, cited by The New York Times and Forbes. Her work focuses on helping companies and leaders succeed in new markets—particularly in the United States.
