Juhani Mykkänen


Helsinki-based tech entrepreneur supporting humanity’s safe transition into AI. Currently helping Nordic decision-makers understand gen-AI, for free.

See the story of me and AI here.

I’m also one of the founders of the e-commerce platform Wolt, operating in 30+ countries with 40 M customers, acquired for $8B by DoorDash in 2022 (I left the company in 2024 after 10 years). 

On the hobby side, I’m the founder of the largest CrossFit competition in Finland, WOD-liiga and Salmisaaren Saliseura, the cosy CrossFit Open Gym in Salmisaari. 

My Instagram gives an idea about my non-work life.

Resume at length here.
