World needs a new approach to materials. This is why Lauri Lehtonen joined Stora Enso in 2019, where he leads a talented, cross-capable, breakthrough innovation focused organization. His aspiration is to create a better future for the generations to come, by developing new opportunities to replace fossil-based materials.
