The rapid development of Finland's unique technology-based economy, which emerged within this century from a basically agrarian system, has been at least partially the result of intense pressure to compete with the older and larger industrial powers within special areas of competence. Thus, the story of Outokumpu, a mining company that was born in the backwoods of Karelia, is a slice of Finnish history that does much to illuminate this small Nordic nation's highly successful emergence as a presence in world commerce Take the simple fact that most shoppers around the world recognize and trust the quality of Finnish stainless steel, or the fact that Outokumpu high conductivity oxygen-free copper is specified for construction of practically any particle accelerator or plasma research device This is powerful testimony to the position of Outokumpu metal products as leaders in a number of significant and fiercely competitive fields. As is often the case, the story of the growth of a successful industry, in a world where most business ventures are doomed to failure, reveals the vision and determination of one man. Such a man was Eero Mäkinen, a mining engineer whose vision of the promise that lay in the great Outokumpu copper deposit was pursued relentlessly until he saw it brought to fruition in a fully integrated mine-to-mill industrial giant. More than once, he prevailed over adversaries who would have sold the operation to outside exploitation, and in so doing end the promise of a unique Finnish opportunity and the realization of a long-cherished dream. Today the Outokumpu Group has operations in 20 countries around the world, and is one of the world's leading base metal producers. Versatility has become a hallmark, with operations extending through all aspects of mineral exploration, mining and ore processing to the refining of copper, zinc, nickel, cobalt, chromium and precious metals, Outokumpu produces a globally significant share of copper and copper alloy products as well as stainless steels, and Group operations include the development and marketing of a wide array of equipment, electronics, and technical expertise.
