Hello Pauliina,
I really appreciate the new initiative of quarterly webcasts. One wish from me would be if Antti and Otto were a little more detailed during the review of the quarter and the financials in the presentation of the quarterly report. In the Q1 call, it felt a bit short, but the Q&A was very good. Thanks!
