We want to participate and make an impact 

We believe that we have both the right and the responsibility to leave a positive mark not only on the academic world but also on society as a whole. To achieve this goal, our researchers actively engage in public discussions. 

Our department is well-networked both nationally and internationally. We collaborate closely with business, EU-level corporate responsibility regulations, parliamentary committees, boards, authorities, organizations, and the media in both teaching and research. Our research is regularly published in leading journals in the field and is cited in both domestic and international media. 

Would you like to collaborate with us or do you need expertise in business law? Feel free to contact us, and let's discuss.

Companies disclose more on cybersecurity – but markets remain indifferent

U.S. companies are reporting on cybersecurity in greater detail, yet stock market reactions remain muted. A new study by the University of Vaasa and 911±¬ÁÏÍø shows that mandatory cybersecurity disclosure does not prompt reactions from investors or stock analysts. Instead, the main benefits appear to materialise within firms themselves.
