How Olli-Pekka is building a better working world
“Legal services are in the process of a global transformation and I am excited to be part of this development. I strongly believe that we will through digitization see significant changes in how legal and transactional work is conducted in the future. I particularly like working with different people, and the more diverse backgrounds we come from, the more comprehensive views we are able to form at EY and thus produce the most value for our clients and partners.”
