Our Mission

We want to encourage entrepreneurship that changes the world and makes it a better place for future generations. We support businesses that have meaning and entrepreneurs that push boundaries of what they’d thought possible. We want to create a community of smart individuals, friends, that want to help make the world a better place through their activities. To do so, we have our media arm, events, and a number of very exciting plans for expansion.

So, we are not just keyboarders. This brings us to our slogan #ActionMatters. Ideas are great to have, but they are also motivation killers if you do not act on them. "Don’t tell what you are planning. Simply show it to the world by doing it." Our flagship event Arctic15 gathers an international crowd of investors, startups, scaleups, corporates and influencers to Helsinki every spring.

FOUNDED IN

2007

ArcticStartup was founded in 2007 and is currently led by Jan Ameri and Vedat Öndas. Our headquarters are located in Helsinki, Finland, however, we cover the startup scenes of Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Iceland, Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania. This is a place where anyone should be able to follow and achieve their dreams. In practice, that means that we support our employees to pursue their dreams, start companies with our help, test ideas, and a lot more. We aim to achieve at ArcticStartup – unity through collaboration, and hence unlimited access to opportunities for everyone we work with.

EVENTS HELD

72

As the creator of organisations covering a wide area in Northern Europe, ArcticStartup Events has been serving since 2007 to meet the needs of both entrepreneurs and investors as much as possible. Over a total of 72 events bear ArcticStartup Events’ signature. 12 of them are Arctic15 events. During these events, more than 26,000 one-on-one meetings were held. Our events have seen more than 18,000 participants so far. The two-day events attract international crowds aside from the Baltics and Nordic regions. These events bring together startups, investors, entrepreneurs, media and influencers to make new connections or strengthen existing ones.

PIECES OF WORK DONE

5650

As in everything else, it all started with an idea before building it in 2007. Yes, it doesn't sound like anything special. Yet, we have become a unique entity when the way we handle this mission and the naturalness and sincerity of the process accompany us to the point we have reached today. We continuously gather tens of thousands of readers from over 130 countries, giving the region's startups a media channel for getting global recognition.
