IDEA THAT MADE AN ACHIEVER
In Finland every man is expected to build a
house to their family. The hard learning curve of
building skills known by old wise men make
them say: "One builds the rst house to his worst
enemy, the second house to his best friend and
the third one to his loved ones". I realized that
the two rst versions should be built in virtual
reality, where it's easier, faster and cheaper. A
lot of mistakes are prevented. I have learnt the
big collaborative effort of hundreds people it
requires to build a hospital. The high technology
is enabler, but it alone won't make progress
happen. Hard, consistent, achievement
oriented collaborative team work is needed.
Virtual reality helps to see and collaborate in the
future.
THE BUSINESS MODEL
To develop hospitals of the future in virtual
reality requires to change working habits in
design. Virtual reality allows combine
brainpower of hundreds of people to co-create
and innovate better future. Fast visualization of
the hospital design and multiple improved
iterative versions lead to efcient space layout.
Increased efciency pays back as number of
patients taken care. VALO Company provides
VALO method of knowledge, technologies and
software to educate design organizations and
users to achieve capability to build better
tomorrow. We provide this knowledge and tools
to development projects of healthcare.
CHAMBER OF SECRET
Enthusiasm into what you do. Obstacles are
won using it. Enthusiastic people seek the way
and solution. Collaborative team work is
second key factor. Build the team you can trust
on when obstacles start raise. When you create
something new there are big bumps always on
the road. Create enthusiastic collaborative
team and innovate the road to future.
MY JOURNEY & MY WAY
I have been fortunate to lead innovative
organizations, which have been developing
themselves and their services or products
continuously. Experience gained in the past
has given me capability to build future. Work
career path has taken me from cold Finland to
work years in Asia region in Hong Kong, China,
Malaysia and Philippines. After working couple
years in Estonia I started virtual reality business
which lead to create VALO Company.
Organizations I have managed have varied in
size from small startups to 1700 persons public
listed company. So far I have started 6 startup
companies. Key working areas with almost
50/50 ratio have been ICT production and
software development. I have lead factory
building projects in China and Malaysia.
Seeing the enthusiasm into design better
healthcare facilities has been big innovator for
me during past ve years I have worked with
future hospitals. I have seen the enthusiasm to
grow in eyes of participants while design work
progress and more of the future can be seen in
virtual reality.
I feel happiness again when entering to India. I
have found enthusiastic people who want to
develop better healthcare to India and share
same values. Virtual reality helps smart people
collaboratively visualize the future care facilities
and shape the future before it happens. VR
increases the speed of progress. The two rst
houses really can be built safely learning from
errors and the real one is the built environment
where we want to be.
