Apart from excellent shipbuilding, Finland also has the ship diesel engine manufacturer Wärtsilä, who is world leading.

I did some IT-consulting for them in the early 2000 in the town of Vasa. Nice to see that they are still at the top.

I enjoyed the no-bullshit attitude and the management by perkele!
