Heidi Fransila

I bring government expertise from the Finnish Prime Minister’s Office to Blic’s toolbox. I built a long civil service career at the Ministry of Defence before transitioning to public affairs work with Blic. During my government tenure, I played a role in developing Finland’s security and defense policy and fostering international defense cooperation with various states, authorities, and international organizations. I also have international experience from positions with the Ministry for Foreign Affairs at the Embassy of Finland in Washington, D.C., and at the UK Ministry of Defence. Domestically, I’ve worked with both the Ministry of Defence and the civil society organization CMI. I hold a Master of Arts degree from The George Washington University in the United States.

At Blic, I work not only with defense clients but also across several client teams. It’s a pleasure to be involved in building Blic as both a company and a community.
