Background
Sami Sillgren,
He is honored to serve as an ambassador for Tree Therium in Vietnam, a role that perfectly aligns with his lifelong commitment to sustainable forestry and innovation.
His journey with tree-planting programs began in Finland during his childhood, where he participated in two national tree cultivation initiatives. More recently, in November 2023, he had the privilege of contributing to a similar program in Malaysian Borneo.
With 20 years of experience in banking in Finland, he transitioned to a new chapter 1.5 years ago, moving to Vietnam to represent Finnish forest technology. This cutting-edge technology enables the efficient utilization of fast-growing local tree species, unlocking sustainable opportunities for industries such as construction and furniture manufacturing.
Through business connections and collaboration with Business Finland, he has developed a deep understanding of the forestry sector and built relationships with key stakeholders in Vietnam, a country with immense potential for tree cultivation and resource optimization.
