Our story

Helsinki Education Hub originally kickstarted in 2021 and was operational in Töölö throughout 2021-2023. Over that time, HEH worked with over 200 start-ups and collaborated with hundreds of teachers and learners. HEH served as a centre and meeting point, helping the EdTech community in Finland grow into a vibrant and diverse group of ambitious start-ups.  

In August 2024, HEH embarked on a new chapter, with operations set to continue until the end of 2026. We intend to build on the foundation of the initial Helsinki Education Hub and bring a new twist of research and teaching into the community and to the activities provided. HEH also moved into a brand-new location in Kruununhaka!
