Sisu Launchpad – What an Incredible Week! 🎉✨ The Sisu Launchpad Accelerator brought together passionate founders, inspiring investors, and experts from the Finnish startup ecosystem for an intensive week of productivity, learning, and connection. 🚀 Over the past few days, we’ve: ✅ Explored the vibrant startup hubs of Helsinki, Espoo and Vantaa ✅ Shared ideas and dreams in unique settings (Sauna Pitching was hot🔥) ✅ Connected with investors, building bridges for future opportunities ✅ Experienced the dynamic energy of Slush 2024 – an event like no other! But beyond the sessions and pitches, it’s the friendships and shared ambitions that truly stand out. Watching our international founders come together to support each other and learn from Finland’s innovation culture has been incredible. 🌍🤝 To all our participants, partners, and supporters: thank you for making this week unforgettable🌟 Business Finland, Business Helsinki, Business Vantaa, Business Espoo, Maria 01, Aalto Startup Center, Startup Sauna, International House Helsinki, Finnish AI Region (FAIR EDIH), Mikko Armila, Jochen Faugel, Kateřina Eskelinen, Sini Karhunen, Sergey Troshkov, Mike Bradshaw, Jori Karvonen, Yana Liubarskaia, Ossi Ritvos, Solja Sulkunen, Joona Selin Photos: Sakari Röyskö

It was great to be part of #Slush 2024 —the largest gathering of venture capital in the world and the most founder-focused event on earth. With 5,500 startups and 3,300 investors, the energy was sky-high —the perfect ratio for good vibes and a lot of deals 🚀💼 This year’s slogan, "Great stories start with a chat, not a prompt," resonates perfectly with how I work, interact, and collaborate with customers and partners 🤝. The Finnish startup ecosystem and community inspire for creativity, collaboration, and innovations for a better future 🚀🌱. This is truly a great place to be! Thought of the week: "The best way to have a good idea is to have lots of ideas." 💡

🚀Sisu Launchpad Day 2 & SLUSH Day 0🚀 We started the day with an Investor Meetup Event – founders had the chance to pitch to our investor guests and received good feedback. We were happy to notice there have already been some matches and followup discussions planned. Great job 💪 In the afternoon we got a chance to visit Maria 01 campus and learn more about the community and excellent opportunities for startups. Our founders were very active and asked a lot of questions, they also seemed interested about the digital membership, that could be a great way to stay in touch with the ecosystem. Evening is booked with great side events, let’s make the most out of them! 🤩 See you tomorrow at Slush! Sisu Factory, Business Helsinki, Business Espoo, Business Vantaa, Maria 01 #Slush2024
