Yesterday we were in Batvik, by the sea, west of Helsinki for a meeting with Nokia. Nokia has a property there – a group of old houses surrounded by forest that they use for meetings. It was a spectacular setting as the snow started to fall that morning.

The main manor house is apparently a former base for Russian officers stationed during their occupation of the territory.

COO Dave Luhr and W+K China Planning Director Nick Barham experience the bracing conditions of a Finnish December. Nick had come from Beijing without packing a woolly jumper.

Leaving Batvik – to the Batvikmobile!
