Fundis has brought on board a truly exceptional leader to spearhead the American expansion! Tuomo “Tommy” Korpinen, who has lived in Los Angeles for over 25 years, has previously held leadership positions at Rovio, Sony Music, Disney, and Warner Music. At Rovio, he was responsible for the Angry Birds film business, and at Disney he led the development of the film studio’s global business operations — a tremendous scope of responsibility.
What made Tommy, who has been steeped in the highest roles at international media giants, join Fundis?
“Fundis’ values are spot on. It’s interesting and rewarding to be part of a company whose main purpose is to help people achieve their own goals through fundraising and community.
It’s also really great to be able to support a Finnish digital startup that is aggressively pursuing expansion into international markets. My own experience, especially in the North American market, combined with Fundis’ unique service concept, creates a solid foundation for the company’s growth and expansion.”
Fundis founder Juha Markkanen is excited about Tommy joining:
“Absolutely fantastic that Tommy came on board! We were immediately on the same wavelength when we met, and Fundis’ plans for entering the US market are accelerating significantly as a result.
It’s a great privilege to have a world-class international expert like Tommy strengthen Fundis! Welcome, Tommy!”
