2 INDEX Finland is COOL! Inbound travelling to Finland has skyrocketed during the recent times. Finland scores growth rates second to virtually no major country in Europe. The companies and persons listed in this document have played a vital role in the process. Finnish Tourist Board has identifi ed four cornerstones to mark the image of Finland as a destination. They all start with letter C. Finland is Credible (keeps its promises, travellers do not encounter problems in Finland), Creative (technically, culturally etc.), Finland has Contrasts (winter/summer, midnight sun/darkness of late fall, elements of eastern culture amidst west etc.), bringing one to conclude that Finland is Cool - both as a trendy country and a country fi lled with freshness. I wish all current and new friends of Finland warmly welcome to our country!
