Ella Palo

Junior Specialist, Innovations

I work as an expert in the Growth from Critical Technologies project.

I work closely with national, Nordic, and EU stakeholders to support Finland’s and the EU’s goals in promoting fair and sustainable digitalization. For example, at the national level, I coordinate a forum on critical technologies that promotes strategic foresight and cooperation between the public sector, academia, and businesses.

I have a master’s degree in political science and a bachelor’s degree in engineering, specializing in socially and environmentally sustainable digitalization. Through my work, I want to promote the use of critical technologies in a way that supports social resilience, security, and the well-being of people and the environment.
