The autumn season of our port trips began with visiting the Finnish Naantali (coupled with partaking in Finnlines' launch of its spanking-new Superstar ferry Finnsirius across the Naantali-Kapellskär crossing via Långnäs).
During my recent visit to Finland, I had the opportunity to speak with the Port of Kaskinen's Patrik Hellman on a number of issues, including the impact of the Russian war on the seaport business, how to prepare ports to best partake in the multifaceted green transition, and how to attract skilled people to work in an industry that is not necessarily in the foreground of the public eye.
My second Finnish autumn 2023 BTJ Trip took me to Finland's capital, where I had the chance to speak with the Port of Helsinki's Vesa Marttinen and Nina Liljeqvist.
