In 2027, ArcticStartup celebrates 20 years of building, connecting, and scaling Northern Europe’s startup ecosystem. To mark two decades of dealmaking, ARCTIC15 2027: Growth Edition is evolving. We are expanding our proven matchmaking core into dedicated, high-impact summits, bringing flagship concepts over from Nordeep, and elevating on-stage deal flow for VCs, founders, and corporates alike.
What’s Happening in 2027?
ARCTIC15 2027: Growth Edition & 20th Anniversary of ArcticStartup
Here is what is new and updated for ARCTIC15 2027:
Deep Tech Summit by NORDEEP
Bringing Research to Business to a Wider Audience
Deep tech requires a different commercialization playbook.
Introduced directly from NORDEEP, the Deep Tech Summit comes to ARCTIC15 to provide a dedicated, high-visibility stage for university spinouts, lab innovations, and science-driven ventures.
There is a growing demand to bring Research to Business (R2B) opportunities into the spotlight. This summit bridges the gap between scientific breakthroughs, technology transfer offices (TTOs), specialized VCs, and industrial partners looking to scale frontier tech.
CIA & What We Fund (WWF) Take the Main Stage
Reverse Pitching for Corporates & VCs
First introduced at Nordeep, two of our most actionable content formats are making their debut on the main stage at ARCTIC15:
What We Fund (WWF): VCs take the stage for 5-minute reverse pitches. VCs present their active thesis, check sizes, and current portfolio gaps so founders learn exactly who the right investment partner is before booking a meeting.
Corporate Innovation Arena (CIA) & Piloting: Corporate leaders present real-world innovation challenges, R&D roadmaps, and procurement needs on stage, creating direct pathways for founders seeking pilot agreements and venture client deals.
Top 100 Innovations Award (2nd Edition)
Honoring World-Shaping Breakthroughs
Following its launch, the Top 100 Innovations Award returns for its 2nd edition. We are once again spotlighting 100 ground-breaking startups and technologies shaping the future. Integrated directly via our SiRA platform, attendees can discover, evaluate, and vote for top innovators, culminating in live main stage pitch finals from the shortlisted ventures.
Specialized Flagship Summits
To ensure maximum relevance and high-value networking, ARCTIC15 2027 is structured around dedicated, multi-day summits running alongside our core Deal Room:
LP Summit
14th Edition
An open, dedicated gathering for Limited Partners (family offices, pension funds, sovereign funds) focused on fund deployment, capital allocation, and venture capital liquidity.
Life Science Summit
Covering the full commercial spectrum of BioTech, MedTech, Digital Health, and clinical-stage innovation.
Defence Tech Summit
Connecting dual-use innovators, national security stakeholders, and specialized defense capital to build societal resilience.
Enhanced Interactive Zones & Side Happenings
SiRA Matchmaking & Speed Networking:
Pre-booked 1-on-1 meetings in our Deal Room paired with fast-paced, 5-minute themed speed networking slots connecting founders directly with Angels and VCs.
Live Opportunity Wall
A real-time, physical and digital request board on the event floor where attendees post active needs (investments, pilot search, co-founders) with instant QR code meeting scheduling.
Experience Zone & Startup Village
Experience Zone (For Physical Tech):
The interactive arena to touch hardware, test robotics, try MedTech wearables, and taste novel food tech. Prove your product works in the real world—reserve your demo pad early!
Startup Village:
Your startup’s dedicated booth directly along the main thoroughfare where every passing VC and corporate buyer walks. The flagship spot for continuous dealmaking—lock yours in early!
Unrivaled Side Events
