Edda Konráðs x Bob Crimmins x Tansu Kjerimi x Súsanna Laursen x Sesselja Reynisdóttir — Why Cool Startup Scenes Need Warmer Communities

​Nordic startup ecosystems are globally admired for their design, innovation, and sustainability — but what’s bubbling beneath the surface? Are we too focused on structure and not enough on soul? This session dives into the invisible layers of Nordic startup culture: from the silent struggles of early founders to the challenge of building inclusive, emotionally intelligent communities in a region known for its lagom cool.
