Juha Ruohonen brings unusual depth as both a repeat startup CEO with over €20M in combined company capitalizations and the founding Head Coach of Startup Sauna accelerator, where his hands-on coaching style earned him the nickname Le Drill Sergeant. His investment approach centers on finding founders with deep industry knowledge rather than chasing technology trends, backed by his own international sales experience across 45 countries and his role in advising governments on startup ecosystem development, including authoring Finland's foundational VICTA report.
