Growth opportunities in sight. Expertise to make them happen.

My professional passion is helping businesses build strong sales engines and create sustainable growth. I enjoy opening new doors, connecting with new people, and creating opportunities that lead to long-term business relationships. One of my strengths is quickly understanding a customer’s potential and building trust that turns first conversations into lasting partnerships.

At Kiila Crew, my role is to keep things moving, create momentum, and encourage clients to step outside their comfort zones when growth requires it. I believe that long-term customer relationships are the foundation of every successful business.

Experience: Founder and CEO of Kirami Oy for 25 years.

What kind of international growth visionary is Mika?

I am naturally curious and quick to get excited about new opportunities. When I see potential in an idea, I rarely wait for the perfect moment. I prefer to act and start exploring where it could lead. My background in product development and commercialisation has taught me how to turn a good idea into something that creates real value for customers and works in the market.

I am at my best when opening new doors and spotting future opportunities. Challenging negotiations energise me, and I enjoy situations where people need to find common ground, build trust, and create new possibilities together. I am a hands-on person who brings energy and momentum, especially when others are still considering their next move.

Outside work, I enjoy barbecuing, riding motorcycles, operating excavators, and travelling during the winter months.

I enjoy discovering new opportunities and helping businesses grow internationally. My strongest areas of expertise are sales, market development, and building long-term customer relationships, particularly in German-speaking Europe. Over the years, I have helped build customer relationships, reseller networks, and international visibility through trade fairs, customer engagement, and hands-on market development.

At Kiila Crew, I help companies find the right customers, build the right partnerships, and create sustainable international growth. Long-term commitment and collaboration guide everything I do. I believe successful business is not built on quick wins, but on trust that grows over time.

At Kiila Crew, I am responsible for developing our clients’ marketing, communications, and projects.

I am also a highly visual person. Colours, shapes, and well-designed experiences fascinate me both professionally and in everyday life.
