Suomen tulevaisuus – The Future of Finland – science series

What kind of know-how, products and structures does Finland’s next rise depend upon? What is the role of science and basic research in building the future?
The series’ host, Howy Jacobs, finds out how Finland’s most important natural resources such as intelligence, forests and water, can be utilized for the benefit of not just Finns, but the entire world.

This series is directed by Nina Pulkkis, co-written and hosted by professor Howy Jacobs, and was initially developed and produced by the former Finnish production company Franck Media during 2013-2016 for MTV3 in Finland. The series received a widespread acclaim in Finland and abroad, winning 2 awards in October 2016 at the Life Science Film Festival in Prague.
