Enter Finland — and the EU — from Malaysia.

Company registration, board seats, and partner introductions in Finland — plus board work — for Malaysian companies.

Petri Karjalainen, Penang
Malaysia / Penang FEDS Consulting

I lived in Penang from 2011 to 2012 and set up my first Malaysian company on Labuan. Then back to Finland — and back to Penang in 2015 to start a game studio. The studio didn't make it, but I did.

I've set up companies in Malaysia (both Labuan and the mainland), Finland, Hong Kong, and Delaware. I've bought consulting services, been disappointed by them, and learned to handle things myself.

I know the processes because I've lived through them. I know bad consultants because I've paid them. I offer this experience to Finnish companies starting where I once started. Read more about me.
