Ekokem Corporation

About

Ekokem, one of the leading circular economy companies in the Nordics, provides environmental management and material efficiency services. Hilppa Rautpalo supervises the legal department of Ekokem in the Nordic region, covering various M&A and corporate governance processes in addition to the implementation of the group’s legal and compliance policies. As Rautpalo is a member of the group management board, her team is actively involved in Ekokem’s key developments and assists the organisation in several large-scale decisions. In January 2015, Ekokem acquired the Danish environmental management company NORD, in an effort to increase its coverage in the country. The legal team was again called upon at the start of 2016 to assist the company during its takeover by Fortum, a Finnish energy company, for approximately €700m. Finalised in August 2016, the takeover will mean a considerable amount of integration to align the Ekokem and Fortum businesses. Many key figures within the industry have cited the Ekokem legal department as a highly competent and focussed group, and the team continues to impress peers with their ability to operate at a consistently high standard.
