Ready to accelerate your growth?

"Innovation with impact happens when there is an attitude, supported by a vision and a clear strategy."


Nordic Scalers is a program that seeks to build the world’s best scaleup ecosystem for learning, peer knowledge sharing, hands-on support, and developing networks. This is achieved by delivering a program that brings a fragmented market together, stays true to scaleup needs and focuses on helping scaleup founders and entrepreneurs to create more wealth and jobs in society as they grow their companies to become some of the biggest exports from the region. 

The program is delivered to you by world-class scaleup entrepreneurs (coaches and inspiration) who’ve scaled tech companies themselves. Meaning: a program built on the knowledge of what scaleups actually need. It’s not a marketing exercise, it’s not matchmaking on the surface and it’s not a mingle. This is about rolling up your sleeves, going deep, and solving real challenges. 

Nordic Scalers - a program by scaleup entrepreneurs, for scaleup entrepreneurs.

  • Application: Open
  • Program starts: From January 2024
  • Program length: 12 Weeks
