A decade for
the venturing
Slush is driving a paradigm shift towards a new era of entrepreneurship. The success stories of the 2020s will look very different from those of the decade gone by.
Entrepreneurship Redefined
DIVERSE & INCLUSIVE FUTURE
The next wave of groundbreaking companies will involve the full extent of human heterogeneity. With that, tech’s problem-solving capacity will be redirected away from current, saturated spaces. After all, people solve for problems that they themselves face.
PURPOSE-DRIVEN CHANGE
A new generation of founders and talent is entering the European ecosystem, ambitious to tackle humankind’s most consequential issues. Companies that acknowledge their responsibility towards shareholders, employees, society, and the planet alike will emerge as the winners of the next decade.
REVOLUTIONARY INNOVATION
The tide of incremental digital solutions will wane in favour of revolutionary innovation. For this to happen, the whole ecosystem needs to find new models of collaboration with surrounding society, including academia, governments and universities.
SLUSH 2021
THE WORLD’S LEADING STARTUP EVENT.
We are preparing for Slush 2021 to go ahead physically in Helsinki on December 1–2. However, we follow the evolution of the pandemic closely and will only proceed if we’re absolutely convinced about our attendees’ safety. Stay tuned for updates!
