The Monocle Weekly

For this special edition of the Monocle Weekly we hear from Mayor Jussi Pajunen of Helsinki about what it takes to be the winning city of Monocle's 2011 most liveable city index. We also talk to Dan Hill from Sitra, The Finnish Innovation Fund about some of the strategies Finland has been using to drive change in its capital and beyond. Finally, we discuss the importance of city-branding with Klavs Holm, Ambassador for Public Diplomacy at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Denmark.
