Kontaktikortin

Kontaktikortin is a Finnish term that translates to "contact card" or "business card." It refers to a small, typically rectangular card bearing an individual's or company's contact information. This information commonly includes a name, title, company name, address, phone number, email address, and website.

Kontaktikortit have historically served as a convenient and tangible way to exchange professional details during in-person interactions, such as meetings, conferences, or networking events. The exchange of kontaktikortit is a customary practice in many business cultures, including Finland. While digital contact sharing has become increasingly prevalent, physical business cards remain a common and often expected element of professional etiquette.

Modern iterations of kontaktikortit may also incorporate QR codes, which can be scanned by smartphones to quickly save contact details or access a website. The design and quality of a kontaktikortti can also be seen as a reflection of the individual or company it represents, with many opting for custom designs and premium materials to make a lasting impression. The term is used both in formal business contexts and in everyday conversation when referring to the exchange of such cards.
