First he made Angry Birds a worldwide hit, now Peter Vesterbacka wants to create Europe’s leading startup ecosystem: In this DLD All Stars talk, Vesterbacka explains why he’s planning to build a privately financed tunnel between Helsinki and Tallinn. The idea is to connect founders, researchers and investors in Finland and Estland, fostering innovation in similar ways to San Francisco’s Bay Area. Only this bay area would be the “finest”, he argues – because it covers both Finland and Estland. (Wink, wink.)
