Join us for the fourth edition of Career Gateways – Oulu ICT Sector, organized in collaboration with BusinessOulu and International House Oulu.

Oulu is a city deeply intertwined with the natural world, whether it’s the lakes and parks scattered around the centre, the small river meandering past shops and cafés, or the larger forests a little further out, there is always somewhere to go and be surrounded by beautiful scenery.

If you are new to Oulu or planning a move, there’s one tradition you’ll quickly notice woven into daily life: the sauna.
