#THENORDICWAY
TechBBQ prioritizes quality over quantity in everything we do. In 2019, TechBBQ will try to move away from the current trends comparing the Nordic ecosystem to places like Silicon Valley. We see great value in building an ecosystem that highlights its own strengths – and weaknesses of course. We want focus on what unique values Nordic entrepreneurs and technological innovators rely on and what barriers our culture might have, in terms of becoming the innovative and technological frontrunners that we aspire to be. In Denmark and the rest of the Nordic countries, we do things our way: #THENORDICWAY.
A Lighthouse in the Nordics
TechBBQ is exists to support and strengthen the Danish ecosystem for entrepreneurship and innovation. We want to make Denmark a lighthouse for technology and innovation in the Nordic region and the rest of Europe.
Larger events with an international format like TechBBQ serve an important purpose for the Danish ecosystem. They create a platform where a critical mass of actors in the form of entrepreneurs, leading tech companies, inspirational leaders, and new talents can meet and share their knowledge and ideas with each other and the rest of the world. An important element for the development of the Danish and Nordic ecosystem is attracting capital for entrepreneurs. I am therefore very proud that TechBBQ hosts the largest annual collection of investors in Denmark.
SEE YOU IN SEPTEMBER!
