Sanna Tahlo
Producer
I am a producer, who is an expert of team learning and also very much into entrepreneurship. I ask the right questions, coach, facilitate, and have responsibility for our event production.
My heart beats for sports, learning, thinking and people.
Growth Hackers
Growth Hackers is our multidisciplinary student team that is brought together by the interest in entrepreneurship and learning more about team skills and team leadership skills.
The hackers form their own team that develop their skills in team work and team leadership. These students have an important role in making HUBS more known for the 30 000 students of Tampere University and TAMK.

Katrina Cirule
Growth Hacker
Event Organising Assistant in the Growth Hacker team and student in Bachelor’s Degree programme in Entrepreneurship and Team Leadership.
I believe that we have to be the change we want to see in this world, therefore I am curious about finding ways to develop myself and help to uplift others on the way.

Pinja Tiensuu
Growth Hacker
I’m an incurable HUBS fan who isn’t really interested in starting my own business, but I do have entrepreneurial spirit. I wanted to join the student team because I believe in the power of self-directed teamwork. I came here to learn to perform, to develop English speaking skills, and just to let my inner entrepreneur and creativity flourish in the form of teamwork.
