Toni Suihko Key-note speaker

Chief Information Officer
Wellbeing services county of Kanta-Häme

I am an internationally qualified IT management expert and experienced in overall management of different activities and interest groups. During my career, I have had an excellent fortune to work in different kinds of environments, companies, in various roles, and with different customers.

One of my most meaningful work activities have related to establishing and building up a totally new public sector organization (the federation of municipalities in welfare and healthcare sector) with totally renewed IT environment (infrastructure, applications etc.). I have worked with IT of social and healthcare since 2008.

I see information technology as one of the most powerful enablers for social and health care to cope with global change trends, especially related to aging, which pose a challenge to the Nordic welfare society's ability to cope in the future.
