Mr. Tanskanen has over three years of experience on questions related to open government data, open source licensing and other open licensing models gained from work experience at HH Partners, Nokia Corporation and the Finnish Ministry of Transport and Communications, as well as from writing his LL.M. Thesis on open government data. In addition to this, Mr. Tanskanen has five years of various work experience, both legal and non-legal, related to the software industry.

2) First review: Review of the first draft. Performed by Martin von Willebrand, Attorney-at-Law and Partner, HH Partners, Attorneys-at-law. Mr. von Willebrand has extensive experience on domestic and international assignments in technology, such as licensing, transfer of rights, protection of IPRs and knowledge, open source and copyright questions. For example Legal 500, Chambers, Best Lawyers, Who's Who Legal and many other publications rate him among top technology practitioners in Finland.

3) Further iterative reviews: The draft was further discussed and reviewed by Liisa Laakso-Tammisto, translator (authorized) and a group of lawyers with extensive experience in Intellectual Property Rights, consisting of the afore-mentioned lawyers at HH Partners, as well as Esa Korkeamäki, Partner at HH Partners, Head of IP practice, and Maria Rehbinder, Legal Counsel, IPR Services of Art Universities, Aalto University.
