My name is Petja Piilola and at Blic...

I lead the Blic Brussels office together with Anssi Klemetti, and I advise businesses from various industries and NGOs. EU-level advocacy work, EU-law and post-Lisbon Treaty legislation processes are some of my specific areas of expertise.

During my public affairs career, I have been responsible for planning and coordinating EU advocacy with several energy companies. I have previously also taught European energy law at the University of Maastricht, at preparatory courses of Turku Law School and at the law student association ELSA’s local branch in Maastricht.

My wide contact network includes central decision-making bodies and stakeholders in Brussels, as well as the political institutions in Finland.
