We are Team Sisu Solutions, a group of students from the International Business program at Satakunta University of Applied Sciences who will be participating in the Nordic Case Challenge (NCC) competition. Our team members are Dinith Malluwa Wadu, Thimira Liniya Lande Gedara, Tomáš Procházka, and Jesse Juusela, and we are coached by Senior Lecturer Anssi Pajala.
Our team was formed after successfully completing a business case project during our studies, where we were selected from several groups within the university to represent our program in this competition. Each member brings different strengths to the team, including strong teamwork, effective task allocation and delegation, detailed research, and structured problem solving.
As a team, we focus on gathering reliable information, analyzing business situations carefully, and organizing our ideas into practical and well-structured solutions. Collaboration and open communication are key elements of how we work together.
Our coach, Anssi Pajala, has been providing excellent guidance and support throughout our preparation. His advice and experience have helped us better understand the competition format and feel more confident before the trip.
We are very excited about this opportunity and highly motivated to represent our university. Participating in this competition will allow us to gain valuable experience, learn from other teams, and further develop the skills that will support our future careers.
