Throughout her entire career, Mari has consistently been part of top-performing teams.
Immediately after graduating, she worked as a research trainee at CERN, within the Nobel physics prize group. Upon returning to Finland, she began her journey as a project researcher in Aalto university’s Wallenberg prize-winning research group, known for its scientifically innovative achievements in the forest industry. Subsequently, Mari worked as a senior researcher and manager at VTT (Technical Research Centre of Finland).
The Timegate team, initially comprised of three scientists with Mari being one of them, passionately believed in the potential of Timegated® Raman spectroscopy for measuring material chemometrics. Initially, their focus was on measuring minerals for various industries. But they later shifted their focus exclusively to the pharmaceutical sector, particularly in biopharma.
In the early days of the Timegate team, Mari started to serve as the CEO. To commercialize the technology, the team needed to develop both the R&D and production teams. Over time, other professionals from different parts of the world joined the team.
Mari possesses excellent organizational skills with good sense of business. Her vision is to create an inspiring workplace with a strong company culture and ambitious goals. In addition to her CEO duties, her responsibilities include finding new applications, exploring new markets and identifying new potential customers for the Timegate’s products and technology. The latest interest for Mari has been expanding the team and developing its capabilities to meet the challenging customer needs.
