Place
Helsinki
Room
Futurum

Guest lecture by Mika Winqvist, Lead Compliance Officer Nordic, Siemens

Venue: Futurum

Siemens is a company selling infrastructure projects and equipment to governments around the world. Thus the issue of how to handle corruption in different countries properly is extremely important for the company. In year 2015, 568 compliance cases were reported of which 208 lead to sanctions (Siemens’ webpage). The guest lecture by Mika Winqvist will offer you an opportunity to find out how Siemens struggles to implement a strict anti-corruption policy in countries ranging from cases where corruption is the norm to cases where the population almost universally condemns corruption.
