Mothers in Business

Mothers in Business is a network for mothers who want to choose both family and career. We are advocating for a more family-friendly and equal working life. We offer our members know-how, networks and peer support.

Currently, we have over 4000 members and hundreds of volunteers throughout Finland.

At MiB moms from diverse backgrounds support each other to find their own path in job search, skills development and work-life balance.

Work and family belong together

Balancing work and family life can be hard. Yet, work and family are complementary areas in life and their combination an everyday occurence for the most of us. Starting a family, peak years or living in family life should not slow down, hinder or prevent anyone's career development.

We actively influence society and working life to promote the status of mothers and family-friendliness and to eliminate discriminatory and unequal structures.
