The Tre Smeder foundation has decided to donate half a million euros to Hanken and the fundraising campaign Count on Hanken. The donation will be paid out during the first quarter of 2022. The campaign Count on Hanken has received donations exceeding 3,4 million euros, including the donation from The Tre Smeder foundation.

- With this donation, we hope to contribute to strengthening and in the long term maintain the high-quality education and research at Hanken. Hanken's efforts in internationalisation also contribute to a multicultural capital where the Swedish language has a strong position, says the Foundation’s Chairman Marcus Rantala.

- It is with great joy and gratefulness that we receive this donation. Hanken aims to create new knowledge and educate responsible professionals through research characterised by high academic quality and corporate-world relevance. The fundraising campaign and the support from the Tre Smeder Foundation is crucial for us to be able to achieve our goals, says Hanken’s Rector Karen Spens.

The fundraising campaign Count on Hanken runs until 30.6.2022. The funds raised are used to strengthen Hanken's unique position as Finland's only independent business school.
