In this episode Steve discusses how Finland, emboldened by increasing job uncertainty and societal stressors in the U.S., is aggressively courting American tech talent in fields like quantum computing and AI to relocate to their country to bolster their growing tech sector. American companies need to take the competitive threat of countries like Finland seriously, as better work life balance and social supports are looking more and more attractive to stressed out American tech workers.
