14 December: The Icy Spectacle
Winter has returned to Helsinki, and YoungShip Helsinki invites you to join us in celebrating the upcoming holiday season!
On December 14th, we extend an invitation for you to explore the winter sport of curling with us. Afterward we will go for a bite at Capperi!
What is curling? It's a sport where players slide stones on the ice toward a target segmented into four concentric circles. Similar to bowls, boules, and shuffleboard, two teams of four players each take turns sliding heavy, polished granite stones (rocks) toward the house, a circular target on the ice. Each team has eight stones, and the goal is to score points by having stones closest to the center of the house at the end of each round. Games typically consist of eight or ten ends, with each player throwing two stones. Seize the opportunity to join the 1.5 million players worldwide!
The event kicks off at 17:00, and following the curling session, we'll gather at restaurant Capperi for a nice meal.
🥌 14 December
🥌 17.00 onwards

Young Corporation Award 2023
The Young Corporation Award was established in 2012 with the aim of recognizing and celebrating exemplary employers who demonstrate a commitment to nurturing and developing young talent. This initiative not only acknowledges the efforts made by these companies but also serves as an inspiration for other organizations to enhance their focus on the growth and development of young individuals.
The Young Corporation Award is presented annually during ShipCon. This year, the award was given to Van Ameyde Krogius for their commitment to nurturing young talent.
Providing opportunities to the youth is evident through the substantial number of young professionals they have brought on board, fortified in the workforce and by that contributing to the development of the next generation of industry leaders.
What sets them apart is their proactive approach to also provide the younger workforce with the opportunity the represent the company. These individuals, despite their age, consistently serve as ambassadors for Van Ameyde Marine in general, and in this case for Van Ameyde Krogius more specifically in various capacities. Whether it is participating in industry events, engaging with clients, or showcasing their expertise.
Our biggest congratulations to Van Ameyde Krogius!
