Antti gets to the point and gets things done. His breadth of life experience exceeds what is typical in the business world (pry it out of him if you have the opportunity) and provides a strong and informed context for decision making. I would not hesitate to work with Antti again and I recommend him to others who might need his skills and experience.

I have been involved with Antti from the very beginning of his tenure at Ekahau. His tenacity, drive, and ability to execute are major factors behind the continued success of Ekahau. Antti is a demanding but also inspiring and fair client whom I hope to work with for a long time to come. And, contrary to rumors, he does have a sense of humor, too...

Antti is strategic and thorough. He cares about results and empowers people around him to strive for their best, understanding the big picture. He is a great mix of technical knowledge and business intelligence. He helped me to develop and genuinely wanted me to grow and succeed. Antti was very much respected by his colleagues, easy to approach, always available and most of all, a strong leader through diverse times of a startup. He would be a great asset to any company. I would jump at a chance to work with him again!

I have always admired how Antti deeply understands both business and technology, and converts that understanding into product/marketing/business strategies that truly work.

Antti is also one of the best presenters I know. No matter how difficult and complex the issue, Antti could break that issue into pieces, present it awesomely on a whiteboard, and lead the brainstorming process.

I would be very happy to work with Antti in the future.

Antti speaks three languages fluently: geek, marketing, and business (he speaks Finnish pretty well, too). In the six years that my company has worked with Antti at Ekahau, we've seen him evolve the company from an unknown start-up into a major force in the industry -- and at the same time deliver quarter-over-quarter growth. Pretty impressive!

Antti is a highly professional CEO and business administrator. He has the rare talent to see, articulate, and focus on the key points in any discussion. I also admire Antti's high commitment to his work, strong charisma, analytical mindset, and good sense of humor. Antti is a person who immediately sees where to go and how to get there. To me this is a sign of a true leader.
