Silicon Valhalla is a Nordic tech intelligence hub that maps startups, founders, investors, and market signals across the Nordic region, with a particular emphasis on AI, SaaS, and frontier innovation. It exists to make the “Silicon Valhalla” ecosystem - Nordic tech’s answer to Silicon Valley - more visible, navigable, and investable for founders, operators, and capital. The platform combines a curated startup directory, an events calendar, and ecosystem insights into a single, neutral entry point for Nordic tech. Startups and scaleups get structured profiles highlighting what they do, where they are based, which sector they play in, and how to reach them, while investors and partners can quickly scan emerging companies across AI, climate, fintech, deep tech, and more. A continuously updated view of companies and activity aims to surface momentum early, so users can spot new categories, breakout teams, and upcoming fundraising stories before they hit the mainstream. Silicon Valhalla is designed to be independent and ecosystem-first rather than a job board or paywalled database. The service is currently free to use, making discovery accessible while opening the door for future premium offerings such as featured profiles, highlighted events, and deeper signal products for investors and corporates. In short, Silicon Valhalla is building the default map and narrative for Nordic tech: a living overview of the startups, talent, and ideas turning the region into one of the most dynamic innovation hubs in Europe.

Sisters In Startup (SIS) is a platform built to close the gender gap in entrepreneurship. Our mission is to empower women by bridging the gap between their entrepreneurial ambitions and the opportunities needed to succeed. Too often, female founders face structural barriers: lack of access to funding, networks, and mentorship. At SIS, we’re creating a digital ecosystem that changes that. Through curated resources, funding guides, community support, and actionable tools, we make it easier for women to turn ideas into sustainable businesses. SIS combines education, community, and funding readiness in one place, offering practical templates, founder stories, and growth programs tailored to each stage of the entrepreneurial journey. We believe entrepreneurship should be accessible to everyone, not just those who already have connections or capital. That’s why we’re building SIS: a space where women founders can learn, connect, and grow together. Our platform will officially launch in 2026 and is currently in development. We’re looking for a passionate co-founder who shares our vision and wants to help shape the future of female entrepreneurship in Europe (and beyond).

Solid IO is developing a test that shows in advance whether immuno-oncology (IO) drugs will work for each cancer patient, helping doctors avoid trial-and-error and giving more patients access to these promising medicines. IO drugs are transforming cancer care, but they don’t work for everyone. Today, most patients tat receive these treatments don't benefit. Valuable time and resources are lost, and side effects and emotional stress can be heavy. This problem touches millions of people worldwide, frustrates doctors, and slows down the development of new IO drugs. Our solution is a test that mimics a patient’s cancer and immune system outside the body. With it, doctors and researchers can see how that patient reacts to IO medicines before starting treatment. This means patients get a more effective plan right away, and pharma and biotech companies can design smarter, faster trials for new IO drugs and combinations. We started Solid IO because we believe cancer patients deserve more than guesswork. In our work we saw how life-changing IO medicines can be, but also how devastating it is when they fail. That inspired us to create a way to bring more certainty, speed, and hope into cancer care.

ODDfest is Finland’s next-generation creative festival—think Slush meets Flow Festival. It unites art, business, and future thinking into one event, creating a space where creative professionals, industry leaders, and cultural innovators collide. The Problem We’re Solving: Finland’s creative and cultural industries are vibrant but fragmented. Artists, entrepreneurs, and innovators often work in silos, lacking platforms that connect them with each other, with audiences, and with opportunities for growth. Meanwhile, the cultural spaces that do exist are often either purely entertainment-driven or purely professional—rarely both. Our Solution: We bring the worlds of creativity, business, and culture under one roof—both figuratively and literally. We create spaces, online and offline, where new ideas can be born, collaborations can spark, and culture can evolve. Why We’re Doing It: We believe that creativity is a driver of societal change and economic growth. By making Finland a hub for next-generation creative culture, we’re putting it on the global cultural map—and creating a movement that inspires, elevates, and unites people from all walks of life.

Nordic Bio-Graphite aims to transform industries toward a net-zero future by supplying CO2 negative graphite. Graphite is the largest component in EV batteries and a critical material for green steel production. However, traditional production methods emit up to 20 kg of CO2 per kg of graphite and consumes significant energy. Leveraging two patent-pending innovations developed by leading materials scientists at KTH Sweden, we have developed the first solution to produce fossil-free graphite from bio-based materials at scale. This unique process enables us to produce green graphite at a cost close to fossil based graphite, while significantly reducing emissions and boosting energy efficiency. Within four years, NBG aims to prevent over 150,000 tonss of CO2 emissions annually.
