This event is by invitation only.

Time for another alumni open mic, this time in hybrid format! Join us in Helsinki or online, as we bring together the Fulbright Finland alumni community, from both the U.S. and Finland, for an inspiring event. Engage with an alumni expert speaker and then share your own news, greetings, and thoughts during the open mic.

The guest speaker is Peter Matthews, 2023-24 Fulbright-Aalto University Distinguished Chair and 2017-18 Fulbright-Hanken Distinguished Chair in Business and Economics. 

Peter Matthews is a behavioral economist who often uses experimental methods to explore various questions in the fields of political economy and, more recently, climate change. In this brief talk, he'll share the results of a simple recent experiment that explores the motives of political partisans when faced with a moral choice. 

We Want to Hear from You!

During the alumni open mic you will also have an opportunity to unmute yourself and let the Fulbright Finland community know what you have been up to. Share your latest news, look for new connections, or just say "hi" to everyone. The virtual floor is yours.

Registration is required!
