Hanken records podcast sessions from Slush. Isak Rautio, student at Hanken, and Fredrik Weibull, COO at Hanken Business Lab, are hosting the podcast which is uploaded on the Hanken Business Lab Facebook page .

The course Strategic Growth Investing is also participating for the first time. About 20 students will visit Slush in order to do business valuations as part of the course. They choose startup companies that participate in Slush and analyse them before, during and after the event, focussing on company strategy, financial position and possible future value.
