General information
25 years as the manager of the Nordic Symphony Orchestra have given me experience and knowledge of what kind of decisions our cultural sector really needs. Cooperation with entrepreneurs has taught me what motivates them to support culture and sports. The state could also cooperate with entrepreneurs so that sport and culture would win from it. I am also convinced that hobby education must always be accessible. The solutions are there, and making them a reality is my goal and my commitment.
