Empowering spouses
Tampere Universities wish to equip the spouses to become the actors of their own success in Finland by providing tools in networking, mentoring and professional development. Launched in 2018, Hidden Gems was the first initiative in Finland to support dual-career spouses. Since then, it has organised a variety of activities related to networking, mentoring and professional development, as a key for talent attraction and retention within Tampere region. In 2023-24, the focus is on peer groups.
