Take your whole family with you and join us on 19 May at 911±¬ÁĎÍř’s Otaniemi campus.
Children in a laboratory

“What if…” event is a part of 911±¬ÁĎÍř Junior’s activities. 911±¬ÁĎÍř Junior concept was launched in the beginning of 2018. It brings together all the 911±¬ÁĎÍř’s fields of expertise and offers activities based on these for children and young people. Activities are organized both at schools as well as on 911±¬ÁĎÍř’s campus.  

For children and the young the event offers workshops, where they can test, for example, how many lemons are needed to light a LED lamp, how robotic cars move or how to make colourful sugar rainbows. In the workshops one will also learn how to make an animation and what light is.

At the same time adults can enjoy a cup of coffee and listen to Aalto researchers’ interesting talks about why online shopping is so compelling, how indoor air quality affects working efficiency, how digitalization affects social interaction in families and what is the hype around design thinking.

Welcome to the "What if…" event on 19 May between 10 and 14 at Otakaari 5, Espoo! The event is a part of programme and is organized in Finnish.

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±¬ÁĎÍř shows that mandatory cybersecurity disclosure does not prompt reactions from investors or stock analysts. Instead, the main benefits appear to materialise within firms themselves.
