I’m now sitting at a café in Helsinki. It’s -11°c outside, just bought winter tires for my bike and chilling before heading home. It has been 6 months that I have not contributed to my blog… Where have those 6 months gone? What have I done so important and time [...]
Here we are! A year ago I was free as a bird and decided to properly start blogging for myself and others. It was the second blog I was really launching, the first one was just my personal adventures in Finland when I moved there in 2003. In a year [...]
Few months back I organized a competition for my 10000 visitors. Fauz was one of the lucky ones to get an Ovi Pack, nicely offered by the Ovi team in Germany. Here is the unboxing:
With a week left to take off for Mobile World Congress, it is time to start getting ready and pack the gear. This MWC will be really interesting for me as I’ll be there not only representing my own company, LeCatalyst, but also few startups from London and Europe. So [...]
2010 is dead, long live 2010. I spent the last 3 weeks in the remoteness of the French Alps disconnecting myself from most industries. Perfect place I needed to reflect and spend time with my loved ones. Last year was definitely a challenging one but brought so much opportunities. Starting [...]
Last week, I was heading to an event near Regent Street. I ended up witnessing Prince Charles’s car being attacked by students. I was fast enough to get my N8 out of my pocket and shoot the escape. I posted that video on Youtube and sent it to the Guardian. [...]
A bit of background info on that post: Jon Orlin from TechCrunch declares “talking” dead. I just wanted to react to that because I find it completely insane to “promote” that kind of thinking. As much as one can decide that a certain “technology” is becoming useless, we’re now talking [...]

Had that content on my harddrive for a while. Bit different, longer #VloMo but worth it. More info on Likeminds at: http://www.wearelikeminds.com/

{EAV:11cff48be37d1a0c} It’s been crazy at the Campus Party and I’ve had an amazing time! I was last night at the “Geeks on Beer” event, listening to investors, startups and entrepreneurs discussing about the Brazilian market, the challenges and opportunities. It was a crash course in Portuguese, but it was fun [...]
Since I got to São Paulo on Monday, I’ve been diving deep in the Campus Party. It’s been really fun and I’ve started to feel like a Campusero myself. But it hasn’t been that easy… Let’s rewind and look at how things went! I got to the venue on [...]Once again, I am lucky to spend time with bright people sharing their passion of Technology, Innovation with maybe a bit of geekyness So what is the Campus Party? The Campus Party is the reunion of thousands of individuals, coming together for a week in the same location and doing [...]
When I joined Nokia back in 2007, I had never done much of public speaking and was for sure not looking for that kind of role. After 2 years working on products, I was lucky enough to be brought to Mobile World Congress to be on the floor, “selling” the [...]
Kevin Energy was playing his last set at Sade last night. Had an amazing time with the guys as usual. Hard to explain the feeling, and am sure this video will not give the full picture.If someone knows about pushing the limits, it is Jeb Corliss. His dream has been to land a wingsuit without parachute. He has been practicing flying and has done amazing videos, pushing the envelope. Today the bucket of luck emptied dramatically. Jeb was jumping in Cape Town, at the Table [...]
If 5 years ago, someone would have told me that they were building a new mobile operator in France, I would have though they were crazy. It takes an amazing amount of resource, energy, money and time to build an infrastructure that supports modern technologies. On top of that, you [...]I’m now sitting at a café in Helsinki. It’s -11°c outside, just bought winter tires for my bike and chilling before heading home. It has been 6 months that I have not contributed to my blog… Where have those 6 months gone?

Quick update! Last Friday I was invited by a friend to join an event at Premier Park, a driving track in southern Finland. The event was quite interesting as we got a chance to discover the different tracks around activities such as off road driving, emergency braking and traction control [...]
The N9, rumored to be Nokia’s first MeeGo device, seems to be on the verge of becoming public. For once, Nokia has managed to create a lot of buzz behind an event that used to be unnoticed: Nokia Connection 2011 Nokia is known to host its events on the sidelines of major [...]
