Following its recognition with the Inspirational Brand Award at the Asia Pacific Enterprise Awards (APEA) 2024, Finest Future has designated Thailand as a key market for advancing global opportunities for Thai students. This accolade underscores Finest Future's ongoing commitment to providing high-quality education solutions and expanding international prospects for Southeast Asian students.
Founded in 2020 by Finnish and Vietnamese entrepreneurs, Finest Future has quickly emerged as a significant player in the regional education sector. Central to its mission is AINO, an AI-driven platform that streamlines the study abroad process, cutting application times by up to 50% while providing real-time updates and personalised support. This vital tool helps students pursue opportunities in Finland, a country known for its transparency and high quality of life.
In addition to AINO, Finest Future offers various initiatives to turn students' aspirations into reality, including cultural immersion workshops and career development programs. The Finest Future Excellence Scholarship provides full tuition coverage for Vietnamese students aged 12 to 14, facilitating access to the transformative benefits of Finnish education.
Tuomas Tiilikainen, Global CEO of Finest Future, said: "Students in Southeast Asia encounter significant barriers to accessing high-quality education. Our mission is to bridge that gap by connecting them with Finland's renowned education system. With over 2,300 enrolled students, we are committed to making their dreams a reality.
"As we expand into key markets like Thailand, Indonesia, and Malaysia, we strive to create pathways to brighter futures. Through partnerships with more than 100 high schools and vocational institutions in Finland, we provide a rigorous and comprehensive continuous learning pathway. From 2028 onwards, each year we aim to support around 3,000 of Thai students in reaching their educational goals."
Finest Future's strong commitment to educational excellence in the region was recently recognised at APEA 2024. This honour underscores the company's achievements and steadfast dedication to its mission. As Finest Future evolves, its focus on quality education, innovation, and empowering future generations remains central to its strategy.
