Stanford University’s Entrepreneurial Thought Leaders Seminar is a weekly speaker series that brings together people from business, finance, technology, education, and philanthropy to share their insights with aspiring entrepreneurs from all over the world. The absolutely engaging speeches dive deep in the different aspects of entrepreneurship, whether in the field of biotechnology, music or software. The speakers include big corporate names, but also serial entrepreneurs, researchers and startups. You can subscribe to the podcasts with iTunes or RSS or just browse the different categories including product development, team work and social entrepreneurship

Another great entrepreneurial resource from the grand universities of US comes from MIT. The MIT $100 challenge is the premier university-run entrepreneurship competition in the world. The year-long competition provides a lot of material for entrepreneurs in Finland: be sure to check out the MIT 2009 pitches
