World Tour Day One: Helsinki, Finland

After a long flight from Portland > Minneapolis > Amsterdam > Helsinki I finally arrived at my first destination in Europe: Global headquarters of Satama, a leading European digital services company with a global clientèle and an energetic, insight-oriented crew and authors of Captain Blackbeak’s Blog (arrrrr!) I didn’t mention Satama in my last post because the event tomorrow is private for a select list of roughly 70 Satama clients and prospects.

I’ve known some of the Satama crew for awhile now online but it was nice to put names with faces! Here are a few of those faces so you can play along at home:

Mikko Isoniemi, Business Unit Director for Analytics, and Steve Jackson, Senior Consultant for Analytics

Janne Korpi, Project Manager and Team Leader for Analytics

Many of the Satama crew, including Mia Luostarinen (front left) who provided invaluable help getting me to Helsinki!

I’m very much looking forward to meeting Satama clients tomorrow at the presentation, after which Steve, Mikko, and I will be heading directly to Stockholm, Sweden for Lars Johansson’s totally sold-out Web Analytics Wednesday event!

It’s impressive what Satama has managed to build and your announcement yesterday is yet another smart move.

Rolf Skyberg, a disruptive innovator from eBay who I met in Rotterdam a few weeks back, called it “digital ubiquity” — the point where we forget that the Internet actually exists and take our ability to access information completely for granted.

[...] Plus, they’re the cool folks who publish the Blackbeak Blog … and, as I mentioned in my post on my trip to Helsinki, Finland, they’re incredibly nice people as well! [...]
