On Season 2, Episode 7 of Inside Marine we were delighted to be joined by Aino-Leena Grapin, the CEO of Winch Design.

Aino joined Winch Design in 2016, getting involved with one of the world’s leading design studios. Before that, her 20-year career was based in leading and growing businesses in creative industries such as art, luxury design and technology. She brings that creative flair to her leadership style and her work within the marine industry.

Aino-Leena works closely with Andrew, the board and senior management team at Winch Design to ensure it’s as strong commercially as it is creatively. The team has just celebrated a year of employee ownership, giving Aino-Leena fascinating perspectives on how a company should be run.

Aino-Leena has been an active part of the marine industry, speaking about creativity, innovation and sustainability to various publications and at networking events.

During this episode we touched on a wealth of topics, from how she entered the marine industry to her passion for rewilding the sea.

We hope you find this episode as inspiring as we did!
