GVL is the future of Finnish education. It teaches valuable lessons straight from business life to the students in university unlike any other study programme in JYU. GVL also brings entrepreneurs, students and university closer enabling completely new ways of interaction and networking. It also provides entrepreneurs chance to get outside view on their business which is often desperately needed. GVL can also be the first stop for companies when starting to work with university because GVL is extremely easy to approach from outside.

On June 10th, 2011, the GVL and Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Khraragpur co-creation venture, Indian Health Kiosk, was presented in an event held at Hanken School of Economics in Helsinki.

After the words of welcome by Hanken assistant professor Pia Polsa, the stage was given over to professor Dhrubes Biswas, the ideator and founder of the venture, who gave a presentation about the business ecosystem being born around the Health Kiosks in India.

After Professor Biswas’s talk, Aki Koivistoinen from Dazzle Oy gave an inspired speech about his personal experiences with and about the role of donations for the Health Kiosk venture. Christian Aspegren presented enabling solutions to the fundability gap that many growth-minded ventures often come face to face with.
