VIP Launch Event

Since launching three years ago, Boardwave has become the pre-eminent networking community in Europe for software Founders & CEOs, with 2,400+ members. We are now expanding into the Nordics.

To mark this milestone, we are hosting our first VIP dinner in Stockholm, bringing together a curated group of Nordic software leaders. Guests will engage in a dynamic discussion on how Boardwave can support the growth of Nordic software companies and help them compete on the global stage. We are excited to confirm that a leading CEO speaker will join the dinner (to be announced), adding firsthand insight into scaling and international growth.

The Nordic software landscape is thriving. Nearly a quarter of the region’s fastest-growing startups are in climate tech, and Stockholm alone is home to almost half, including innovators in smart grids, agritech, and plant-based materials.

This energy makes the Nordics the perfect setting for Boardwave to bring together the region’s most ambitious software leaders to collaborate, debate, and help shape the future of European software.

Join us to share insights, forge meaningful connections, and be part of the conversation driving the next chapter of Nordic software.
