The Connau Founders:
✨ Päivi Klemm (CEO & Founder) – The visionary. With over 10 years of professional experience in the pet industry, Päivi combines business expertise with the practical perspective of a dog owner. Having recently welcomed a new furry member to her family, she uses Connau herself to manage her dog's journey, ensuring the platform stays focused on what owners truly need.
✨ Sami Finnig (Pet Care & Community) – The bridge to the dog world. Coming from a dedicated dog breeding family, Sami has deep roots in the community. He ensures that our solutions are built on the real-world experiences of breeders and the practical needs of dogs, keeping our feet firmly on the ground.
✨ Mikko “Tuba” Tuominen (Product Execution) – The builder. Tuba’s vast expertise in product development and technology turns our big ideas into a functional, secure, and scalable digital platform.
✨ Otso Lindfors (Strategy & Design) – The architect of our user experience. Otso ensures that Connau isn’t just powerful, but also intuitive and represents the high-quality Nordic design our users expect.
Why we do what we do: We aren’t just building software; we are building a legacy of care. Based in Finland—a country known for its high animal welfare standards—we are dedicated to fixing the challenges of fragmented information, one data-driven life path at a time.
